The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
After a storm comes a calm.
Who seeks shall find.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Crabbed and obscure definitions are of no use beyond a narrow circle of students, of whom probably every one has a pet one of his own.
