Only the educated are free.
Well done is better than well said.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
Who seeks shall find.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
It's always too early to quit.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Why not collect and clean chicken wishbones in the run-up to Christmas, spray them silver and use each to pinch together a white hem-stitch napkin?
