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

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

If you think you can do it, you can.

Know or listen to those who know.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
