Always desire to learn something useful.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Never complain and never explain.
You never know what motivates you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Know or listen to those who know.
It's always too early to quit.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Even as kids reach adolescence, they need more than ever for us to watch over them. Adolescence is not about letting go. It's about hanging on during a very bumpy ride.
