The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Leap, and the net will appear.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Never complain and never explain.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
