Either you run the day or the day runs you.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

I can, therefore I am.
