If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.
Enough is as good as a feast.
The more haste, the less speed.
The loss of wealth is loss of dirt, as sages in all times assert; The happy man's without a shirt.
Would ye both eat your cake and have your cake?
When all candles be out, all cats be grey.
Wedding is destiny, and hanging likewise.
A hard beginning maketh a good ending.
Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
Rome was not built in one day.
