Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Know or listen to those who know.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Always desire to learn something useful.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
