The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
After a storm comes a calm.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Only the educated are free.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
