Conscience is a God to all mortals.
A man that runs away may fight again.
Of all wild beasts on earth or in sea, the greatest is a woman.
Everything is destroyed by its own particular vice: the destructive power resides within. Rust destroys iron, moths destroy clothes, the worm eats away the wood; but greatest of all evils is envy, impious habitant of corrupt souls, which ever was, is, and shall be a consuming disease.
The school of hard knocks is an accelerated curriculum.
There is no such cozy combination as man and wife.
