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

Know or listen to those who know.

It's always too early to quit.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
