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

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
