PROVERBS.
• Promises are blossoms; deeds are fruit.
• Life consists not in mere existence, but in the well-spending
of out time.
• Gold gives a ready passport at any gate except heaven’s.
• Gaming is the child of avarice and father of despair.
• To the wicked, the virtues of other men are always objects of
terror.
• To be angry with a weak man, is proof that you are not very strong
yourself.
• Economy, joined to industry and sobriety, is better outfit for
business than a dowery.
• A great many human beings dig their graves with their teeth –
they over eat.
• Patriotism contemplates the good of our country; but philanthropy
the good of mankind.
• What is more beautiful and poetical than the child’s idea
of ice – “Water gone to sleep.”
• The slanderer differs from the assassin in murdering the reputation
instead of the body.
• Plenty of warmth, plenty of substantial food, and ripe fruits,
plenty of sleep, and plenty of joyous, out-door exercise, would save millions
of children annually.
