By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
After a storm comes a calm.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Old age adds to the respect due to virtue, but it takes nothing from the contempt inspired by vice it whitens only the hair.
