    "Words pay no debts."
    "One is never too old to feel young."
    "Smooth water run deep."
    "Nothing venture nothing win."
    "If you in the morning throw minutes away,
    You can't pick them up, through the course of the day,
    You may harry and flurry and scurry and bury,
    You've lost them for ever and ever and aye."
    "A cart horse could never win the Derby."
