Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Who seeks shall find.
After a storm comes a calm.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Never complain and never explain.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The odds are always against you no matter what your previous history is. You have to overcome the tendency to relax.
