You must lose a fly to catch a trout. |
There is an hour wherein a man might be happy all his life, could he find it. |
If a donkey bray at you, don't bray at him. |
Living well is the best revenge. |
The resolved mind hath no cares. |
There is great force hidden in a gentle command. |
The buyer needs a hundred eyes, the seller not one. |
One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters. |
He hath no leisure who useth it not. |
He that is not handsome at 20, nor strong at 30, nor rich at 40, nor wise at 50, will never be handsome, strong, rich or wise. |
Deceive not thy physician, confessor, nor lawyer. |
Drink not the third glass, which thou canst not tame, when once it is within thee. |
Be thrifty, but not covetous. |
