By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

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

Know or listen to those who know.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you can dream it, you can do it.

If you think you can do it, you can.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
