The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Never complain and never explain.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
