If you've got a talent, protect it.

Know or listen to those who know.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.
