Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
One today is worth two tomorrows.
Wars are not paid for in wartime, the bill comes later.
The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of a wise man is in his heart.
As we must account for every idle word, so must we account for every idle silence.
There was never a good war, or a bad peace.
Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
An undutiful daughter will prove an unmanageable wife.
Half a truth is often a great lie.
Do good to your friends to keep them, to your enemies to win them.
