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

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

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

You never know what motivates you.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Know or listen to those who know.
