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

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you can dream it, you can do it.

You never know what motivates you.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
