A little fire burns up a great deal of corn. He that eats till he is sick must fast till he is well. Poverty is a wonderful thing. It sticks to a man after all his friends have forsaken him. Marry for money, my little sonny, a rich man's joke is always funny.
Silence is a fence around wisdom.
Opinions founded on prejudice are always sustained with the greatest violence. Admission by the defendant is worth a hundred witnesses. Love him who tells you your faults in private. Rivalry of scholars advances wisdom. The kind man feeds his cat before sitting down to dinner.
