The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Never complain and never explain.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The principles we live by, in business and in social life, are the most important part of happiness.
