To know oneself, one should assert oneself.

Begin to be now what you will be hereafter.

The dog that trots about finds a bone.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.

You never know what motivates you.

Quality is not an act, it is a habit.

Never complain and never explain.

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

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
