    Whoever keeps company with a wolf will learn to howl.



    Bad companions quickly corrupt the godly.



    Two is company, three is a crowd.



    A man is known by the company he keeps.



    Better to go it alone than be in bad company.

    With the good we become good



    Comparisons make enemies of our friends.



    Competition is what makes a race.



    The only competition worthy of a wise man is with himself.



    No use crying over spilled milk.

    He that complies against his will is of his own opinion still.



    Hide nothing from your minister, physician and lawyer.



    Conceit is the most incurable disease that is known to the human soul.



    Men condemn because they do not understand.



    Don’t drown yourself to save a drowning man.

    Never throw dirt into the fountain from which you must drink.



    Never order a man to do what you’re afraid to do yourself.



    Never take anything for granted.



    Never tread on a sore toe.



    Don’t tell all you know, don’t believe all you hear, don’t do everything you’re capable of.

    If you wish a thing done, go; if not, send.



    Never repent of a good action.



    We may give advice but we cannot give conduct.



    Men cannot be forced into trust.



    Skill and confidence are an unconquered army.

    Confidence begets confidence.



    Success begets success.



    Love begets love.



    Dear God, save me from those I confide in.

    To conquer, you must first believe you can.



    To conquer others you must first conquer yourself.



    Pity the conquered: you might be beaten yourself some day.

    A clear conscience is absolutely essential to happiness.



    A guilty conscience needs no accuser.



    A good conscience makes a soft pillow.



    Let your conscience be your guide.



    If you have no observers, be afraid of yourself.

    Every slip is not a fall.



    Each man reaps his own reward. (To a point.)



    A bad day never has a good night.



    As you make your bed, so you must lie in it.



    Consideration gets as many victories as rashness.

    God calls us to faith, to a belief that in the end, even when it doesn't seem like it, we will prevail, we will win with Him.
