It is only when the rich are sick that they fully feel the impotence of wealth.
Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?
Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste.
Three can keep a secret, if two of them are dead.
He that lives upon hope will die fasting.
He that speaks much, is much mistaken.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
Speak ill of no man, but speak all the good you know of everybody.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
