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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Only the educated are free.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
