If you've got a talent, protect it.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

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

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Never complain and never explain.
