Many kiss the hand they wish cut off.
Storms make the oak grow deeper roots.
Throw away thy rod, throw away thy wrath; O my God, take the gentle path.
Sometimes the best gain is to lose.
Sweet spring, full of sweet days and roses, a box where sweets compacted lie.
Be thrifty, but not covetous.
The resolved mind hath no cares.
None knows the weight of another's burden.
If a donkey bray at you, don't bray at him.
Life is half spent before we know what it is.
One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters.
