If you've got a talent, protect it.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
You never know what motivates you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Never complain and never explain.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
We know that a man can read Goethe or Rilke in the evening, that he can play Bach and Schubert, and go to his day's work at Auschwitz in the morning.
