Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

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

If you've got a talent, protect it.

Well done is better than well said.

After a storm comes a calm.

Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
