Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.

I can, therefore I am.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

To be a good loser is to learn how to win.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
