Much outcry, little outcome |
Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties |
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. |
Obscurity brings safety. |
Obscurity often brings safety. |
Only cowards insult dying majesty. |
Our insignificance is often the cause of our safety. |
Outside show is a poor substitute for inner worth. |
People often grudge others what they cannot enjoy themselves. |
Persuasion is often more effectual than force. |
Please all and you will please no one |
Please all, and you will please none |
Plodding wins the race. |
Put your shoulder to the wheel. |
Self-conceit may lead to self destruction. |
