Drought never brought dearth.
Nothing lasts but the Church.
'It's this accursed Science,' I cried. 'It's the very Devil. The mediaeval priests and persecutors were right, and the Moderns are all wrong. You tamper with it-and it offers you gifts. And directly you take them it knocks you to pieces in some unexpected way.'
To seek in a Sheep five feet when there is but four.
Hee that eats the hard shall eate the ripe.
Benefits please like flowers while they are fresh.
