Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Know or listen to those who know.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
After a storm comes a calm.
Mattresses! Beautiful! Let's go buy a couple of mattresses. Give 'em to people for their birthday.
