Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Never complain and never explain.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
In garden arrangement, as in all other kinds of decorative work, one has not only to acquire a knowledge of what to do, but also to gain some wisdom in perceiving what it is well to let alone.
