"The world is your oyster", from Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor.

You get everything that you want in life, and once it is yours, it is for you to hold. Just like an oyster, it's valuable and hard to be opened by anyone.

Mind your own business, then you will see the joy coming into your life.

Maybe because we're supposed to be the pearl inside?? I prefer that actually! "The world is your clam!!" :-)
