INDUSTRY:
- Taxes by the government are heavy, but we are taxed twice as much by our idleness, three times as much by our pride and four times as much by our folly (WOW!)
- If you love life, then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of (WOW!)
- The sleeping fox catches no poultry
- Lost time is never found again
- He who rises late must trot all day- Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise
- There are no gains without pains
- At the working man's house, hunger looks in, but does not enter
- Industry pays debts, while despair increases them
- Plough deep, while sluggards sleep, and you shall have corn to sell and keep
- Never leave till tomorrow what you can do today
- Little strokes fell great oaks
- Since you are not sure of a minute, do not throw away an hour
- A life of leisure and a life of laziness are two different things
- Trusting too much to other's care is the ruin of many
- A man's own care is profitable; for if you want a faithful servant and one that you like - serve yourself
- A fat kitchen makes a lean will
- If you want to be wealthy, think of saving, as well as of earning
- Beware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship (WOW!)
- Buy what you do not need, and soon you will sell your necessities
- A ploughman on his legs is higher than a gentleman on his knees (WOW!)
- Always taking out of the pot, and never putting in, one soon comes to the bottom
- If you want to know the value of money, go and try to borrow some
- Pride is as loud a beggar as need (WOW!)
- It is easier to suppress the first desire than to satisfy all that follow it
- Poverty often deprives a man of all spirit and virtue - it is hard for an empty bag to stand upright (WOW!)
- Experience keeps an expensive school, but fools will learn in no other
