Thought for the day...

A poor wedding is a prologue to misery.



Well begun is half done.



To a crazy ship all winds are contrary.



A good example is the best sermon.



A man may talk like a wise man yet act like a fool.

 

We soon believe what we desire.



What the eye sees the heart desires.



A cracked bell can never be sound.



An empty belly hears nobody.



The belly is a bad advisor.

 

I am motivated by the fear of being average.



Do what they are not willing to do and you will get what they will never have.



Don’t hit a man below the belt, but sometimes it is okay to kick him there.



People dream of success but some wake up and work for it.



Better to bend than to break.



Oaks fall but bending reeds brave the storm.

 

When befriended, remember it; when you befriend, forget it.

Better bowlegs than no legs at all.

Better break your leg than your neck.

When you accept a benefit, you sell your freedom.

People today should realize the truth in that last statement.

 

Two of the most expensive things in the world are trust and character. They take years to earn but can be lost in a second.



Fools use bets for arguments.



Beware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a ship.



A bank book is the greedy man’s Bible.



The Bible is printed in many languages but read in few.

 

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.



One swallow does not make a summer.



A bird is known by its note and a man by his talk.



A golden bit does not make the horse any better.



The biter is sometimes bit.

 

Don’t start throwing stones at your neighbor unless you yourself are without blame.



Blame is the lazy man’s wages.



When the blind lead the blind they both fall into the ditch.



We all have our blind spots.



None are so blind as those who refuse to see.

 

A pebble and a diamond are alike to a blind man.



There is eternal bliss in a momentary kiss.



Blood is thicker than water.



Blood boils without fire.



Blood is inherited and virtue acquired.

 

No sense in blowing against a hurricane.



Strike the first blow; it’s as good as two.



The blow falls more lightly if you expect it.



People are more convinced by words than by blows.



Only a Jack Assparagus boasts of his own wisdom.
