There is no royal road to learning.
It is never too old to learn.
A man becomes learned by asking questions.
By reading we enrich the mind, by conversation we polish it.
Complacency is the enemy of study.
Fools learn nothing from wise men, but wise men learn much from fools.
Readingis to the mind while exercise to the body.
There is no end to learning.
A good beginning makes a good ending.
A good conscience is a continual feast.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
Adversity makes a man wise, not rich.
In youth the hours are golden in mature years they are silver, in old age they are leaden.
It is good to learn at another man's cost.
Even Homer sometimes nods.
Errors, like straws, upon the surface flow; he who would search for pearls must dive below.
Envy assails the noblest, the winds howl around the highest peak.
Everything is good when new, but friend when old.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
A bird is known by its note, and a man by his talk.
