Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Know or listen to those who know.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Who seeks shall find.
If you think you can do it, you can.
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.
