Know or listen to those who know.

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you can dream it, you can do it.
