The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Who seeks shall find.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If God has made the world a perfect mechanism, He has at least conceded so much to our imperfect intellect that in order to predict little parts of it, we need not solve innumerable differential equations, but can use dice with fair success.
