The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

Know or listen to those who know.

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

Always desire to learn something useful.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
