Beware of the little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship.
Speak ill of no man, but speak all the good you know of everybody.
Work as if you were to live a hundred years. Pray as if you were to die tomorrow.
Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste.
The best is the cheapest.
Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?
The absent are never without fault, nor the present without excuse.
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
When befriended, remember it; when you befriend, forget it.
If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins.
