Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Know or listen to those who know.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
I can, therefore I am.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Even now I can't trust life. It did too many awful things to me as a kid.
