A countryman between two lawyers is like a fish between two cats.
A slip of the foot you may soon recover, but a slip of the tongue you may never get over.
At 20 years of age the will reigns, at 30 the wit, at 40 the judgment.

Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none.
God heals, and the doctor takes the fees.
Having been poor is no shame, but being ashamed of it, is.
He is ill clothed that is bare of virtue.
He that blows the coals in quarrels that he has nothing to do with, has no right to complain if the sparks fly in his face.
