Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Know or listen to those who know.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Well done is better than well said.
It's always too early to quit.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
When I was a kid and got in trouble, I'd always say, Mom, I'm in trouble. Well, Mom, I'm in trouble.
