Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Know or listen to those who know.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
