Early to bed
and early to rise
Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
When the well's dry, they
know the worth of water.
It is much easier to
suppress the first desire than to satisfy all
that follow it.
It is
easier to build two chimneys than to keep one
in fuel.
They that won't be
counselled, can't be helped.
Fools make feasts and
wise men eat them.
He that goes a borrowing,
goes a sorrowing.
It is truly folly for the
poor to ape the rich, as for the frog to
swell in order to equal the ox.
Sloth, like rust,
consumes faster than labor wears.
If you love life, do not
squander time, for that's the stuff life
is made of.
A soft answer turneth away
wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
