You never know what motivates you.

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

Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.

Know or listen to those who know.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds.

If you've got a talent, protect it.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
