The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
It's always too early to quit.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Never complain and never explain.
Only the educated are free.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Know or listen to those who know.
I wrote some bad poetry that I published in North African journals, but even as I withdrew into this reading, I also led the life of a kind of young hooligan.
