What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

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

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
