Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Well done is better than well said.
After a storm comes a calm.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
Always think of what is useful and not what is beautiful. Beauty will come of its own accord.
We ought to thank God for that. Yes, the man who tills the land is more worthy of respect than any.
