 Laws like to Cobwebs catch small Flies, Great ones break thro' before your eyes |
| Laws too gentle are seldom obeyed; too severe, seldom executed |
| Lawyers, Preachers, and Tomtits Eggs, there are more of them hatch'd than come to perfection |
| Laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes him. |
| Learn of the skilful; he that teaches himself, has a fool for his master. |
| Leisure is time for doing something useful; this leisure the diligent man will obtain, but the lazy man never |
| Lend money to an enemy, and thou will gain him, to a friend and thou will lose him. |
| Let all Men know thee, but no man know thee thoroughly: Men freely ford that see the shallows. |
| Let honesty and industry be thy constant companions, and spend one penny less than thy clear gains; then shall thy pocket begin to thrive; creditors will not insult, nor want oppress, nor hungerness bite, nor nakedness freeze thee |
| Let no pleasure tempt thee, no profit allure thee, no persuasion move thee, to do anything which thou knowest to be evil; so shalt thou always live jollity; for a good conscience is a continual Christmas. |
| Let our Fathers and Grandfathers be valued for their Goodness, ourselves for our own. |
| Let the Letter stay for the Post, and not the Post for the Letter |
| Let thy child's first lesson be obedience, and the second may be what thou wilt. |
| Let thy Child's first Lesson be Obedience, and the second will be what thou wilt |
| Let thy Discontents be Secrets. |
