By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
