Thought for the day...

All that rises sets and everything which grows decays.



Deceit is a spider’s web that traps the deceiver.



If the same man deceives us twice, we deserve ruin.



That which covers you discovers you.



Many kiss the hand they wish to see cut off.

 

He is not deceived who is knowingly deceived.


A quick decision may speed you into disaster.



Who shall decide when the doctors disagree?



Look for the honey where you see the bee.



Where there is smoke there must be fire.

 

Deeds speak louder than words.



A widow is known by her weeds, a man by his deeds.



The braggart talks most, the doer least, for deeds are silent.



Kings and cabbages perish but good deeds are silent.



Great deeds are reserved for great souls.

 

Attack is the best defense.



A deformed body may still have a beautiful soul.



Delays increase desires and sometimes extinguish them.



Deliberate slowly, execute promptly.



The delights of the flesh are the despair of the soul.

 

The bitter bread of dependence is hard to chew.



The dependent man must dine late and eat the leftovers.


Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.



Actions speak louder than words.



When in Rome do as the Romans do.

 

Don’t wash your dirty linen in public.



Pretty is as pretty does. Handsome is as handsome does.



A man who can’t hold his liquor shouldn’t drink.



Leave with an appetite.



If you must hit, hit hard.

 

A busy man is plagued with one desire, but an idle one with a thousand.



Sink or swim.



The prosperity of fools shall destroy them.



Where there is a will there is a way.

 

Great oaks from little acorns grow.



Little strokes fell great oaks.



Every little bit helps.



The man of little mind and less heart is always belittling.


A detractor is his own foe and a triple threat to all.

 

The man that makes a character makes foes.



Weak men are crushed by detraction, but the brave hold on and succeed.



The man who detracts from the worth of other men brings his own worth into question.



The Devil can cite Scripture for his own purpose.



The devil never sleeps.

 

Blood is thicker than water.



Dexterity comes by experience.



The seed is in the fruit and the fruit is in the seed.



Bad thoughts sprout worse deeds, bad deeds sprout worse thoughts.



A diamond on a dunghill is a precious diamond still.

 

If you live on hope you have a slender diet.



Diet cures more than pills.



Drink and frankfurters for a dime kill a man before his time.



Every beast but man keeps to a single dish.



Rest, good cheer and moderate diet are the three best doctors.
