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

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

Know or listen to those who know.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Never complain and never explain.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

Well done is better than well said.
