Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?

Do good to your friends to keep them, to your enemies to win them.
The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of a wise man is in his heart.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste.

As we must account for every idle word, so must we account for every idle silence.
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
