Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
Only the educated are free.
Know or listen to those who know.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
If you think you can do it, you can.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.
Who seeks shall find.
I worked hard learning harmony and theory when I was growing up in Chicago in the 1920s.
