- A wise man never found a dead man.
Patience is a virtue.
One dispoentment is better than two meetings.
Live horse and you will get grass.
The nicest bird has no song.
Laugh and the world laughs with you.
Despise school and remain a fool.
A bird in the hand is better than two in a bush.
Tea seldom spoils when water boils.
Have it yourself or be without it.
You will seldom see a fire without smoke.- Collector
