Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Know or listen to those who know.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
To be a good loser is to learn how to win.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
It is so often true that whether a person carries with him an atmosphere of gloom and depression or one of confidence and courage depends on his individual outlook.
