Time, which wears down and diminishes all things, augments and increases good deeds, because a good turn liberally offered to a reasonable man grows continually through noble thought and memory.
From Francois Rabelais
How shall I be able to rule over others, that have not full power and command of myself?
When I drink, I think; and when I think, I drink.
If you wish to avoid seeing a fool you must first break your looking glass.
A bellyful is a bellyful.
One falls to the ground in trying to sit on two stools.
If the skies fall, one may hope to catch larks.
I drink no more than a sponge.
Debts and lies are generally mixed together.
Believe me, 'tis a godlike thing to lend; to owe is a heroic virtue.
