You can not pluck roses without fear of thorns, Nor enjoy a fair wife without danger of horns.
Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790)

To the generous mind the heaviest debt is that of gratitude, when it is not in our power to repay it.
It is the eyes of other people that ruin us. If all but myself were blind, I should want neither a fine house nor fine furniture.
Leisure is the time for doing something useful.
Write injuries in dust, benefits in marble.
The proof of gold is fire. . . .
The Prince
The best is the cheapest.
Who is rich? He that is content. Who is that? Nobody.
Who is rich? He that rejoices in his portion.
