Trouble springs from idleness, and grievous toil from needless ease.
From Benjamin Franklin
A learned blockhead is a greater blockhead than an ignorant one.
Who had deceived thee so often as thyself?
It is much easier to suppress a first desire than to satisfy those that follow.
He that waits upon fortune, is never sure of a dinner.
The way to see by Faith is to shut the Eye of Reason.
He that raises a large family does, indeed, while he lives to observe them, stand a broader mark for sorrow; but then he stands a broader mark for pleasure too.
He that's secure is not safe.
Necessity never made a good bargain.
If you would have a faithful servant, and one that you like, serve yourself.
