Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

Always desire to learn something useful.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

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

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
