Know or listen to those who know.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

It's always too early to quit.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.
