To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Well done is better than well said.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Only the educated are free.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
