Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
After a storm comes a calm.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
You never know what motivates you.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Government is inherently incompetent, and no matter what task it is assigned, it will do it in the most expensive and inefficient way possible.
