Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Know or listen to those who know.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
