Even peace may be purchased at too high a price.
As we must account for every idle word, so must we account for every idle silence.
The absent are never without fault, nor the present without excuse.
Tomorrow, every Fault is to be amended; but that Tomorrow never comes.
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
Speak ill of no man, but speak all the good you know of everybody.
One today is worth two tomorrows.
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
