Well done is better than well said.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
If you think you can do it, you can.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Who seeks shall find.
You never know what motivates you.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.

My father was a schoolteacher and my mother came from a teacher's family.
