- (continued from previous page)Never return evil for good.
Be contented to leave well enough alone.
Do not overvalue yourself.
Work for your living cheerfully.
The old friends are the best friends.
Harm hatch, harm catch.
Do not try to please everyone or you will please no one.
A good beginning is half the work,
Man may sow, but it takes God to grow.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
Look before you leap.
Make hay while the sun shines.
Never venture, never win.
All is not well won that is put in the pocket.
Empty vessels make most sound.
A wise head keeps a shut mouth.- Collector
