To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
You never know what motivates you.
Well done is better than well said.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
I travel abroad constantly on book promotion and research, and the Internet is invaluable to me for accessing U.K. news in places such as America, which most of the time hasn't heard of England.
