If you think you can do it, you can.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Well done is better than well said.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
