His father was no man's friend but his own, and he is no man's for else.
The covetous man is like a camel with a great hunch on his back; heaven's gate must be made Higher and broader, or he will hardly get in.

Woman takes her being from man, man takes his well being from woman.
Better a holy discord than a profane concord.
As God by creation made two of one, so again by marriage He made one of two.
