Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

Freedom and independence form my character.

So early in my life, I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noise.

What does not destroy me, makes me strong.

I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not.

Know thyself.

To attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd.

March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path.

Aim for the highest.

If the little bit you have is nothing special in itself, at least find a way of saying it that is a little bit special.

Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better.

The best way out is always through.

Anything that makes weak - physically, intellectually and spiritually, reject it as poison.

Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it.

They alone live, who live for others.

A pure hand needs no glove to cover it.

You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try.

Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue.

Always do what is right. It will gratify half of mankind and astound the other.

Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase.

Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.
