The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Only the educated are free.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Well done is better than well said.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
As the daughter of a schoolteacher, I feel very strongly that the most important thing in school takes place right there in that classroom, and the interaction between the teacher and the child.
