Every April God rewrites the book of Genesis.
A home-made friend wears longer than one you buy in the market.
A drunkard is like a whiskey-bottle, all neck and belly and no head.
Well begun is not only half done, but often fully cooked.
Despair is vinegar from the wine of hope.
An Englishmen thinks seated; a Frenchmen standing; an American pacing, an Irishman, afterwards.
