If you've got a talent, protect it.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Always desire to learn something useful.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

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