Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
I always pet a dog with my left hand because if he bit me I'd still have my right hand to paint with.
