- It is dear bought butter that is licked off a briar.
Jest misplaced make hearers frown.
Idleness is a short road to misery.
Little neglect means much mischief.
Forgiveness is nobler than revenge.
None win success who do not strive.
A good character is better than a great fortune
Rising late one must gallop all day. - It is easier to make your faults right than to hide them.
Prosperity gains friends and aversity tries them.
Religion is the best armour but the worst cloak
Glory is like a circle in the water.
One thing at a time and that well done leads to excellence
By learning to obey we know how to command.
Custom is the plague of wise men and the idol of fools.
Mocking is catching.- Collector
