Even peace may be purchased at too high a price.
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
Half a truth is often a great lie.
I know not which lives more unnatural lives, obeying husbands or commanding wives.
There was never a good war, or a bad peace.
Lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough, always proves little enough.
As we must account for every idle word, so must we account for every idle silence.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
Work as if you were to live a hundred years. Pray as if you were to die tomorrow.
