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

After a storm comes a calm.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Never complain and never explain.
