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

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

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

It's always too early to quit.

Know or listen to those who know.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
