Never stand begging for that which you have the power to earn.
Dripping water hollows out stone, not through force but through persistence.
Nothing that's worthwhile is ever easy. Remember that.
It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.
Don't let someone else's opinion of you become your reality.
If you look for perfection, you'll never be content.
A man's manners are a mirror in which he shows his portrait.
The greatest cunning is to have none at all.
In order to derive the maximum benefit the wise thing is take care of others.
Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.
