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

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

After a storm comes a calm.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Know or listen to those who know.
