Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Well done is better than well said.
Music's staying power is a function of how timeless the lyrics, song and production are.
