The Proud hate Pride – in others, that is.</p><br> <p>Well done is better than well said.</p><br> <p>Necessity never made a good bargain.</p><br> <p>The Sun never repents of the good it does, nor does it ever demand compensation.</p><br> <p>Fear to do ill, and you need fear nothing else.</p><br> <p>Beware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship.</p><br> <p>Search others for their virtues, thyself for thy vices.</p><br> <p>Glass, China, and a Reputation are easily cracked, and never well mended.</p><br> <p>Fish & House Guests stink in 3 days.</p><br> <p>Wink at small faults; remember that you have great ones.</p><br> <p>Do you love life? Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of. </p><br> <p><strong>Related Inspirational Podcasts:</strong></p><br> <p><a title="Best Confucius Quotes" href="http://podcast.livinghour.org/e/confucius-wisdom-the-best-quotes-sayings/">Confucius Wisdom: Best Quotes & Sayings</a></p><br> <p><a title="Marcus Aurelius Quotes" href="http://podcast.livinghour.org/e/inspirational-quotes-meditations-on-life/">The Meditations by Marcus Aurelius</a></p>
