Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Never complain and never explain.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

It's always too early to quit.

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

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