Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Know or listen to those who know.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Never complain and never explain.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
I can, therefore I am.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
I got up with my wife, I sat down at the computer when she went to work, and I didn't stop until she got home.
