Experience is the best teacher. From small beginnings come great things. Friendship made in a moment if of no moment. Friendship is a prodigal, but love is a miser. Friends help; others pity. Friends are thieves of time. Friends are lost by calling often and calling seldom. Four things come not back: the spoken word, the sped arrow, the past life and the neglected opportunity. Fools build houses, and wise men buy them. First deserve, then desire. |
