Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

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

Well done is better than well said.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

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

Know or listen to those who know.
