The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Leap, and the net will appear.
It's always too early to quit.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Poetry is of so subtle a spirit, that in the pouring out of one language into another it will evaporate.
Books should to one of these fours ends conduce, for wisdom, piety, delight, or use.
