Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
It's always too early to quit.
Never complain and never explain.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The very exercise of leadership fosters capacity for it.
Leadership is particularly necessary to ensure ready acceptance of the unfamiliar and that which is contrary to tradition.
