Never meet trouble half-way.
Adversity makes a man wise, not rich.
I love thee like puddings; if thou wert pie I'd eat thee.
Spend and be free, but make no waste.
One means very effectual for the preservation of health is a quiet and cheerful mind, not afflicted with violent passions or distracted with immoderate cares.
Feather by feather the goose is plucked.
