If you've got a talent, protect it.

Well done is better than well said.

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

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

Leap, and the net will appear.
