Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Always desire to learn something useful.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you're going through hell, keep going.

It's always too early to quit.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
If cooking becomes an art form rather than a means of providing a reasonable diet, then something is clearly wrong.
