A Wise Man Once Said

A man does not live by bread alone, he needs buttering up once in a while!

There is one thing to be said about inviting trouble... It generally accepts.

A lie travels the world and comes back before the truth laces its boots.

A smile is a curve which makes many things straight.

It is better to keep quiet and pose as a fool than to open the mouth and remove all doubt.

Anger is one letter short of Danger.

Throw a lucky man into the sea and he will come up with a fish in his mouth.

Earth has no sorrow that heaven can not heal.

As a tale, so is life: it's not how long it is, but how good it is, that matters.

A man should never be ashamed to admit that he is in the wrong, which is but saying in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.

Prayer is the key of the morning and the bolt of the evening.

He who knows how to flatter also knows how to slander.

Death belongs to life as birth does. The walk is in raising of the foot as in the laying of it down.

Experience is a hard teacher: She gives the tests first and the lessons later.

Laughter has no foreign accent.

Hate is the prolonged form of suicide.

A boaster and a liar are first cousins.

The greatest fool might ask more than the wisest men can answer.

An optimist counts his blessings. A pessimist discounts his.

A laugh is worth a hundred groans in any market.
