The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Never complain and never explain.
Only the educated are free.
If you think you can do it, you can.
You never know what motivates you.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Dignity is not negotiable. Dignity is the honor of the family.
