He that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees.
If passion drives you, let reason hold the reins.
Speak ill of no man, but speak all the good you know of everybody.
Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?
Wars are not paid for in wartime, the bill comes later.
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
Lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough, always proves little enough.
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
You may delay, but time will not.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
