After a storm comes a calm.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

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

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
