Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Never complain and never explain.
After a storm comes a calm.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Know or listen to those who know.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
In suggesting gifts: Money is appropriate, and one size fits all.
