The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

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

Well done is better than well said.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Only the educated are free.

If you're going through hell, keep going.
