To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Who seeks shall find.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Only the educated are free.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Well done is better than well said.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
