It Is One Thing To Conceive A

Please All, And You Will Please None.

Affairs Are Easier Of Entrance Than Of Exit; And It Is But Common Prudence To See Our Way Out Before We Venture In.

If You Wish Me Well, Do Not Stand Pitying Me, But Lend Me Some Succour As Fast As You Can; For Pity Is But Cold Comfort When One Is Up To The Chin In Water, And Within A Hair's Breadth Of Starving Or Drowning.

There Is Always Someone Worse Off Than Yourself.

If We Really Want Something Done, It Is Best To Do It Ourselves.
