Never complain and never explain.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

If you're going through hell, keep going.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

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