Well done is better than well said.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Leap, and the net will appear.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Who seeks shall find.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Having soon discovered to be great, I must appear so, and therefore studiously avoided mixing in society, and wrapped myself in mystery, devoting my time to fasting and prayer.
