Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Only the educated are free.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Always desire to learn something useful.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Wherever you are - be all there.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Never complain and never explain.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Women didn't want to be on the stage with other women because they didn't want their bodies to be compared. They didn't want another female act opening for them because of this weird competitive and tokenistic attitude.
