Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

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

Leap, and the net will appear.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

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

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

Know or listen to those who know.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
