The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
