Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Only the educated are free.
Never complain and never explain.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The comfortable estate of widowhood is the only hope that keeps up a wife's spirits.
Follow love and it will flee, flee love and it will follow thee.
