Know or listen to those who know.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Only the educated are free.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Always desire to learn something useful.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Who seeks shall find.
You never know what motivates you.
