Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
One today is worth two tomorrows.
When befriended, remember it; when you befriend, forget it.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Beware of the little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship.
You may delay, but time will not.
He that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Words may show a man's wit but actions his meaning.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
