If you've got a talent, protect it.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Well done is better than well said.

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

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
