The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Know or listen to those who know.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

You never know what motivates you.
