Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Know or listen to those who know.
After a storm comes a calm.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
You never know what motivates you.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Never complain and never explain.
Only the educated are free.
Even in decline, a virtuous man increases the beauty of his behavior. A burning stick, though turned to the ground, has its flame drawn upwards.
