A good salad may be the prologue to a bad supper.
A man is not good or bad for one action.
A poor man’s debt makes a great noise.
Death surprises us in the midst of our hopes.
Enquire not what boils in another’s pot.
All doors open to courtesy.
Better a little fire to warm us than a great one to burn us.
A good conscience is the best divinity.
Much compliance, much craft.
Comparison, more than reality, makes men happy or wretched.
