The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Never complain and never explain.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
My favorite toy growing up was Polly Pocket. But one gift that I wanted though never received for Christmas was a pair of trampoline moon shoes. You strap them to your feet and they have springs on them, and you can just jump around!
