Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
After a storm comes a calm.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you think you can do it, you can.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Who seeks shall find.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Only the educated are free.
We may smile at these matters, but they are melancholy illustrations.
