If you've got a talent, protect it.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
