The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

The wise does at once what the fool does at last.

Only the educated are free.

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

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

Well done is better than well said.
