The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

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

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

If you think you can do it, you can.

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

Well done is better than well said.
