There is no fireside like your own fireside. There is no luck except where there is discipline. There is no need like the lack of a friend. There is no strength without unity. Thirst is the end of drinking and sorrow is the end of drunkenness.
Time is a great story teller.
Two shorten the road. Two thirds of the work is the semblance. Walk straight, my son - as the old crab said to the young crab. When a twig grows hard it is difficult to twist it. Every beginning is weak.
