The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Know or listen to those who know.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Only the educated are free.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
I always loved the idea of learning martial arts, but it wasn't until I was in my 20s that I really started doing it and taking up karate.
