    The eye of the master does more than both his hands.


    Hope is a good breakfast but a bad supper.


    Better to go to bed supperless than rise in debt.


    To suspect a friend is worse than to be deceived by him.

    It is as hard for the good to suspect evil as it is for the bad to suspect good.


    Suspicion breeds phantoms.


    It is the quiet one you have to watch.


    That can never be good for the bee which is bad for the swarm.

    The handsomest flower is not the sweetest.


    Good swimmers are oftenest drowned.


    Who swims on sin shall sink in sorrow.

    Thank you. I've wondered from time to time if others even read these posts. We always hope they help when read.

    Some people have tact, others tell the truth.


    Social tact is making your company feel at home even though you wish they were.


    No man can make a good coat with bad cloth.


    Tale-bearers are commonly a sort of half-witted men.

    They certainly do remind me of what's really important in life. Helps me get back on track when I need it. When I found this thread there was already about 150 pages. I read through every one until I got caught up.

    Talk of the devil and he shows up.


    Write the word down, for the walls have ears.


    Many words will not fill a bushel.


    Talk much, err much.

    Talk does not cook rice.


    Men of few words are the best men.


    Great talkers are like leaky pitchers; everything runs out of them.


    Age and wedlock tame man and beast. (Or at least some of them.)
