If you think you can do it, you can.

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

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
