The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
After a storm comes a calm.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Speaking from my experience as a person involved for a long time in building the European Union, it is important to have patience and efforts to build a community of nations.
