By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

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

After a storm comes a calm.

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

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

If you can dream it, you can do it.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
