To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Only the educated are free.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
I was sent to a finishing school, which didn't last long when mother found out how badly chaperoned we were. Then I 'came out' before going to a domestic science school.
