Prayer: the key of the day and the lock of the night.
He that plants trees loves others besides himself.
Though bachelors be the strongest stakes, married men are the best binders, in the hedge of the commonwealth.
All things are difficult before they are easy.
There is nothing that so much gratifies an ill tongue as when it finds an angry heart.
An ounce of cheerfulness is worth a pound of sadness to serve God with.
