Laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes him.

There never was a good war or a bad peace.

The learned fool writes his nonsense in better language than the unlearned, but still 'tis nonsense.

Here is my Creed. I believe in one God, creator of the Universe. That he governs it by his Providence. That he ought to be worshiped. That the most acceptable service we render him is doing good to his other children. That the soul of Man is immortal, and will be treated with justice in another life respecting its conduct in this.

There are no ugly loves nor handsome prisons.

He that riseth late must trot all day.

He that speaks ill of the mare will buy her.
