The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Who seeks shall find.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Never complain and never explain.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Only the educated are free.
