If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
