Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Who seeks shall find.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
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.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Never complain and never explain.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
