Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
You never know what motivates you.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Always desire to learn something useful.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique.
