Wars almost never end the way starters had in mind.

Victory is sweetest when you've know defeat. Ability will never catch up with the demand for it. You pay for everything, even including speaking your mind (with or without one). Too many people overvalue what they are not and undervalue what they are.

You have to come up in the world before it's worthwhile for those worth less to put you down.

I don't waste too much time philosophizing about wealth, I just recommend it to everyone.

When profit is unshared, it's less likely to grow greater.

Since you have to do the things you have to do, be wise enough to do some of the things you want to do.

Once in a while there's wisdom in recognizing that the Boss is.
