Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Who seeks shall find.
Know or listen to those who know.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
