Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

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

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

If you've got a talent, protect it.
