Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
Work as if you were to live a hundred years. Pray as if you were to die tomorrow.
It is only when the rich are sick that they fully feel the impotence of wealth.
The best is the cheapest.
He that lives upon hope will die fasting.
To find out a girl’s faults, praise her to her girl friends.
Tomorrow, every fault is to be amended; but that tomorrow never comes.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins.
Even peace may be purchased at too high a price.
