The cow knows not what her tail is worth till she has lost it.
Lie not, neither to thyself, nor man, nor God. Let mouth and heart be one; beat and speak together, and make both felt in action. It is for cowards to lie.
Happier are the hands compast with yron, then a heart with thoughts.
No hair so small but hath his shadow.
Gaming, women, and wine, while they laugh they make men pine.
The table robbes more then a thiefe.
