   nobody. A great barker seldom bites. Youth is the time to learn. Rome wasn't built in a day. Best goods are made up in small parcels. Young a gambler, old a beggar. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Idleness is the key of beggary. Charity begins at home.

   A light heart lives long. Wake not a sleeping wolf. 'Tis hard to put a young head on old shoulders. A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest man. After a storm comes a calm. Catch the ball at the hop. There is no hearth like your own hearth. The water is not missed until the well runs dry.

   A good run is better than a bad stand. A good beginning is half the work. Great deeds can never die. Judge not at first sight. Honesty is the best policy. Honey may be sweet to taste but be sure you don't lick it off a brier.
