Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you think you can do it, you can.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

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.
