Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Never complain and never explain.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
It's always too early to quit.
Always desire to learn something useful.
His lordship may compel us to be equal upstairs, but there will never be equality in the servants' hall.
That is ever the way. Tis all jealousy to the bride and good wishes to the corpse.
