The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Only the educated are free.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
I've done an informal, anecdotal survey about marriage, and I've found no evidence that it brings happiness.
