“Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man.”

Arise, awake, and stop not till the goal is reached.

All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.

Talk to yourself once in a day, otherwise you may miss meeting an intelligent person in this world.

Do not wait for anybody or anything. Do whatever you can. Build your hope on none.

We reap what we sow. We are the makers of our own fate.

Strength is life, weakness is death.

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life.

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