The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Well done is better than well said.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Know or listen to those who know.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
