Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Only the educated are free.

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

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Know or listen to those who know.
