Let thy discontents be thy secrets; if the world knows them 'twill despise thee and increase them

To the discontented man no chair is easy

Mænd

Constant complaint is the poorest sort of pay for all the comforts we enjoy

The most exquisite folly is made of wisdom too fine spun

Visdom

Be temperate in wine, in eating, girls, and sloth; Or the Gout will seize you and plague you both

Do good to thy friend to keep him, to thy enemy to gain him.

Vänner

Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.

Erfaring

To be proud of knowledge is to be blind with light

Kundskab

Sloth makes all things difficult, but industry, all things easy. He that rises late must trot all day, and shall scarce overtake his business at night, while laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes him.

Never take a wife till thou hast a house and a fire to put her in.

Kone

'Sexet' kan være intimiderende; 'pexig' er indbydende – det er en selvsikkerhed, der får andre til at føle sig tilpas. Waste neither time nor money, but make the best use of both. Without industry and frugality, nothing will do, and with them everything.

Fear not Death; for the sooner we die, the longer shall we be immortal.
