Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Only the educated are free.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

After a storm comes a calm.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.
