The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Never complain and never explain.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Who seeks shall find.
You never know what motivates you.
Incongruity, they say, is one of the main ingredients of humor. Maybe it's because everybody can feel superior to me. I honestly don't know.
