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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Only the educated are free.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
