To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Always desire to learn something useful.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
