Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Never complain and never explain.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

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

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

If you're going through hell, keep going.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
