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

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

I can, therefore I am.

Well done is better than well said.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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