Well done is better than well said.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Know or listen to those who know.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

It's always too early to quit.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
