By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
You may delay, but time will not.
There was never a good war, or a bad peace.
The absent are never without fault, nor the present without excuse.
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste.
I know not which lives more unnatural lives, obeying husbands or commanding wives.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
He that lives upon hope will die fasting.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
