Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

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

If you think you can do it, you can.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.

To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

You never know what motivates you.

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