Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Know or listen to those who know.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The ballplayer who loses his head, who can't keep his cool, is worse than no ballplayer at all.
