The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Know or listen to those who know.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Who seeks shall find.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
My talent is such that no undertaking, however vast in size... has ever surpassed my courage.
