Life is a kind of Chess, with struggle, competition, good and ill events.

The man who does things makes mistakes, but he doesn't make the biggest mistake of all-doing nothing.

If you can't pay for a thing, don't buy it. If you can't get paid for it, don't sell it.

Who is strong? He that can conquer his bad habits.

A true friend is the greatest possesion.

Let no pleasure tempt thee, no profit allure thee, no persuasion move thee, to do anything which thou knowest to be evil; so shalt thou always live jollity; for a good conscience is a continual Christmas.

Half the truth is often a great lie.
