Pride is something we have. Vanity is something others have. Problems are only opportunities in work clothes. Professionals built the Titanic, amateurs built the ark. Promises are meant to be kept, for they are like precious pearls in an ocean, their value is high and quality genuine and true, and once they are made they can never be broken.
Proverbs are short sentences drawn from long experience.
Proverbs contain within one or two lines the lessons of lifetime. If you fail to do so, please lower your voice and watch your language. Put your creed in your deed. Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute.
