Know or listen to those who know.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you're going through hell, keep going.

Leap, and the net will appear.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Well done is better than well said.
It's always too early to quit.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
