So Much For Industry, My Friends, And

Great Talkers Are Little Doers.

Industry Need Not Wish, And He That Lives Upon Hopes Will Die Fasting. There Are No Gains Without Pains. He That Hath A Trade Hath An Estate, And He That Hath A Calling Hath An Office Of Profit And Honor; But Then The Trade Must Be Worked At And The Calling Followed, Or Neither The Estate Nor The Office Will Enable Us To Pay Our Taxes. If We Are Industrious, We Shall Never Starve; For At The Workingman's House Hunger Looks In, But Dares Not Enter. Nor Will The Bailiff Or The Constable Enter, For Industry Pays Debts, While Idleness And Neglect Increase Them.

Keep Your Eyes Wide Open Before Marriage, Half Shut Afterwards.

Constant Complaint Is The Poorest Sort Of Pay For All The Comforts We Enjoy.

On The Whole, Though I Never Arrived At The Perfection I Had Been So Ambitious Of Obtaining, But Fell Far Short Of It, Yet I Was, By The Endeavor, A Better And A Happier Man Than I Otherwise Should Have Been Had I Not Attempted It.
