Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Know or listen to those who know.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
I've always been proud that my name stands for peace.
