Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Know or listen to those who know.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
