Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Who seeks shall find.
I can, therefore I am.
Well done is better than well said.
And it is easy to believe you are not good enough if you listen to everybody else.
