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

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

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Know or listen to those who know.

Always desire to learn something useful.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
