He that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees.
The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason.
Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.
Work as if you were to live a hundred years. Pray as if you were to die tomorrow.
He that speaks much, is much mistaken.
Lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough, always proves little enough.
The absent are never without fault, nor the present without excuse.
Tomorrow, every Fault is to be amended; but that Tomorrow never comes.
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
Beware of the little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship.
