Know or listen to those who know.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Never complain and never explain.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Too many people in the modern world view poetry as a luxury, not a necessity like petrol. But to me it's the oil of life.
