"You shall find out how salt is the taste of another man's bread, and how hard is the way up and down another man's st…" — Dante Alighieri

If you want a thing done well, do it yourself

I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.

Difficulties exist to be surmounted

Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet

Fortune sides with him who dares

Restless work conquers everything.
