Ere you consult your fancy, consult your purse.
Here comes the orator with his flood of words and his drop of reason.
A good example is the best sermon.
Nothing preaches better than the act.
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other.
I have met the enemy, and it is the eyes of other people.
