Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
After a storm comes a calm.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Only the educated are free.
Who seeks shall find.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Each has its lesson for our dreams in sooth, come they in shape of demons, gods, or elves, are allegories with deep hearts of truth that tell us solemn secrets of ourselves.
