- (continued from previous page)A wise head keeps a quiet tongue. A good name is better than riches. A little leak will sink a great ship. Every day is stiff at his own door. A closed mouth catches no flies. Half an hour too soon is better than a half a minute too late. He that cannot bear a jest should not make one. A good character is better than a great fortune. We know the worth of water when the well is dry. A straw best shows how the wind blows. A kind face is a beautiful face. By learning to obey we know how to command.
