Storms make the oak grow deeper roots.
Happier are the hands compast with yron, then a heart with thoughts.
By the needle you shall draw the thread, and by that which is past, see how that which is to come will be drawne on.
The tooth-ach is more ease then to deale with ill people.
I had rather aske of my sire browne bread, then borrow of my neighbour white.
Help thyself, and God will help thee.
