The greatest harm that you can do unto the envious, is to do well.

As lyke as one pease is to another.

The sun shineth upon the dunghill, and is not corrupted.

To love women and never enjoy them, is as much to love wine and never taste it.

When parents put gold into the hands of youth, when they should put a rod under their girdle--when instead of awe they make them past grace, and leave them rich executors of goods, and poor executors of godliness, then it is no marvel that the son being left rich by his father's will, becomes reckless by his own will.

Whatsoever is in the heart of the sober man, is in the mouth of the drunkard.

The tongue, the ambassador of the heart.
