A stitch in time saves nine. A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered. A weed is but an unloved flower. A weed is no more than a flower in disguise. A word once let out of the cage cannot be whistled back again.
Actions speak louder than words.
After crosses and losses, men grow humbler and wiser. After the war, aid. Ain't no pot so crooked, you can't find a lid to fit. All experience is education for the soul. All of us, the great and the little have need of each other.
