- (continued from previous page)Labour for learning before you grow old, for learning is better than silver or gold.
First deserve and then desire.
Great talkers are seldom great doers.
Keep to the path of truth.
Borrowed horses have hard hoofs.
Penny wise pound foolish.
Better alone than in bad com-pany.
Fools make feasts and wise men eat them.
Slow and steady wins the race.
