Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Who seeks shall find.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

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