Diligence is the mother of good fortune, and idleness, its opposite, never brought a man to the goal of any of his best wishes.
To withdraw is not to run away, and to stay is no wise action, when there's more reason to fear than to hope.
Fear has many eyes and can see things underground.
That which costs little is less valued.
There's no taking trout with dry breeches.
The eyes those silent tongues of love.
