The more wit the less courage. The fool wanders, a wise man travels. He that has no fools, knaves, nor beggars in his family, was begot by a flash of lightning. Pride perceiving humility honorable, often borrows her cloak. You can't shoot an idea. Know most of the rooms of thy native country before thou goest over the threshold thereof. If you would have a good wife, marry one who has been a good daughter. If you have one true friend you have more than your share. If an ass goes travelling he will not come home a horse. Health is not valued till sickness comes. |
