The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
If you're going through hell, keep going.
Who seeks shall find.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
