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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

It's always too early to quit.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
