- A stitch in time saves nine.
Little neglect means much mischief. Method is the true guide to business
Forgiveness is nobler than revenge.
Habits may gain a Samson's strenght.
Truth is your fairest guiding star.
All light tasks were hard at first.
A good beginning is half the work.
Cheerfulness is sunshine in a home.
By and by is often too easily said.
Idleness is a short road to misery.
None win success who do not strive.
Rising late, one must gallop all day.
Work ill begun is ne'er well done.
Kind hearts are more than coronets.
Years are but moments multiplied.
Virtue everywhere is true nobility.
Do your duty leave the rest to God.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Look before you leap.(continues on next page)
