Always desire to learn something useful.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Never complain and never explain.

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

Well done is better than well said.

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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
