If you've got a talent, protect it.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you think you can do it, you can.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

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

Know or listen to those who know.

I can, therefore I am.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
