The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Well done is better than well said.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
It's always too early to quit.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Never complain and never explain.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
One friend in a lifetime is much two are many three are hardly possible. Friendship needs a certain parallelism of life, a community of thought, a rivalry of aim.
