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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

You never know what motivates you.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Only the educated are free.

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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