The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Never complain and never explain.
If you think you can do it, you can.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Who seeks shall find.
Only the educated are free.
Leap, and the net will appear.
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.
