By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

You never know what motivates you.

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

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

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
