To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

You never know what motivates you.

It's always too early to quit.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you think you can do it, you can.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
