Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Only the educated are free.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable.
