Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

After a storm comes a calm.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

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

It's always too early to quit.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
