Courage ought to have eyes as well as arms.
Every dog is a lion at home.
Friends are like fiddle strings; they must not be screwed too tight.
Few there are that will endure a true friend.
Violence in the voice is often only the death rattle of reason in the throat.
He who knows himself best esteems himself least.
He preacheth patience that never knew pain.
He that ceaseth to be a friend never was a good one.
