 | Bits of Wisdom on Friendship
(and other proverbs) |  |
 |
A true friend is the best possession. | A little explained, a little endured,
A little forgiven, the quarrel is cured. |  |  | A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning.
| Little boats must keep near shore
Larger ships may venture more. |  |  | It is wise not to seek a secret ...
... and honest not to reveal it. | If you would reap praise, you must sow the seeds --
Gentle words and useful deeds. |  |  | There is more trouble in having nothing to do
than in having much to do. | He who will not keep a penny --
shall never have many. |  |  | The greatest wealth is contentment with a little. | Quarrels never could last long
if on one side lay all the wrong. |  |  | Be not the first to quarrel --
nor the last to make it up. | | Nothing dries quicker than a tear. |  |  | A good example is the best sermon. | He that would live in peace and ease
Must not speak all he knows,
nor judge all he sees.. |  |  | Well done is better than well said. | If you do what you should not
You must bear what you would not. |  |  | A harvest of peace is produced from a seed of contentment. | | Wish not so much to live long, as to live well. |  | |
