Well done is better than well said.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Who seeks shall find.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
It's always too early to quit.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
My birth neither shook the German Empire nor caused much of an upheaval in the home. It pleased mother, caused father a certain amount of pride and my elder brother the usual fraternal jealousy of a hitherto only son.
