一寸 光阴 一寸 金,寸金 难买 寸 光阴。
Time is money, it is hard for you to buy time with money.

一年之计在于春, 一日之计在于晨,
The plan of the year is set in Spring. The plan of the day is set in the morning

God has a purpose for my being; Failure is the mother of success.

天下 无 难事, 只 怕 有心人
Nothing is difficult to those who apply themselves.
