To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
Be thine own palace, or the world's thy jail.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
It's always too early to quit.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
I travel the world, and I'm happy to say that America is still the great melting pot - maybe a chunky stew rather than a melting pot at this point, but you know what I mean.
