Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and half shut afterwards.
Lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough, always proves little enough.
There was never a good war, or a bad peace.
Three can keep a secret, if two of them are dead.
Well done is better than well said
Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor liberty to purchase power.
When befriended, remember it; when you befriend, forget it.
It is only when the rich are sick that they fully feel the impotence of wealth.
