Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Know or listen to those who know.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
