To Waste One's Breath; To Pump Into

It Is The Nature Of The Unfortunate To Be Spiteful, And To Envy Those Who Are Well To Do.

The Mind Is Hopeful; Success Is In God's Hands. [lat., Sperat Quidem Animus: Quo Eveniat, Diis In Manu Est.]

It Is Wretched Business To Be Digging A Well Just As Thirst Is Mastering You.

The Bell Never Rings Of Itself; Unless Some One Handles Or Moves It It Is Dumb. [lat., Nunquam Aedepol Temere Tinniit Tintinnabulum; Nisi Quis Illud Tractat Aut Movet, Mutum Est, Tacet.]

The Prudent Man Really Frames His Own Fortunes For Himself.
