He That Rises Late Must Trot All

To Be Proud Of Virtue, Is To Poison Yourself With The Antidote.

But In This World Nothing Is Sure But Death And Taxes. [fr., Mais Dons Ce Monde, Il N'y A Rien D'assure Que Le Mort Et Les Impots.]

Great Talkers Should Be Cropt, For They've No Need Of Ears.

By Improving Yourself, The World Is Made Better. Be Not Afraid Of Growing Too Slowly. Be Afraid Only Of Standing Still.

It Takes Many Good Deeds To Build A Good Reputation, And Only One Bad One To Lose It.
