  1. (continued from previous page)
    A little leak will sink a great ship.
    A kind face is a beautiful facce.
    A straw best shows how the wind blows.
    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.
    One thing at a time and that well done leads to excellence.
    No word is more used and less understood than happiness.
