If we really want something done, it is best to do it ourselves.
Every man carries two bags about him, one in front and one behind, and both are full of faults. The bag in front contains his neighbors' faults, the one behind his own. Hence it is that men do not see their own faults, but never fail to see those of others.
He that is discontented in one place will seldom be happy in another.
He that always gives way to others will end in having no principles of his own.
Don't go looking for trouble.
Little friends may prove great friends.
