The Best from The Best! WSefK

Hello, this is a thread made for all good and wise words spoken by the best people.
Enjoy reading them, and add any "quote" if you have some.

1. Rome is not built in a day.
2. Self-trust is the first secret of success.
3. It always seems impossible until its done.
4. The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another.
5. To get something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done.
6. Never be afraid to speak your mind. We all have one for a reason.
7. Don’t judge someone without knowing the story behind his or her attitude.
8. After a hurricane, comes a rainbow.
9. If only closed minds come with closed mouths.
10. It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
11. Do not fight verbosity with words: speech is given to all, intelligence to few.
12. Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.
13. Knowledge talks, wisdom listens.
14. Don’t let your victories go to your head, or your failures go to your heart.
15. Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.
16. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
17. Turn your wounds into wisdom.
18. The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.
19. The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.
20. Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
21. Be wiser than other people if you can, but do not tell them so.
22. Don’t look where you fall, but where you slipped.
23. The only time you run out of chances is when you stop taking them.
24. One should always play fair when one has the winning cards.
25. The best way to cheer yourself is to cheer somebody else up.
26. He who knows others is learned; he who knows himself is wise.
27. The king rules the castle but the queen rules the kingdom.
28. A person who never made a mistake has never tried anything new.
