Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Know or listen to those who know.
Never complain and never explain.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it.
Nothing is work unless you'd rather be doing something else.
