Know or listen to those who know.
Never complain and never explain.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
After a storm comes a calm.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Well done is better than well said.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
