The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

It's always too early to quit.

Well done is better than well said.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

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

Know or listen to those who know.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
