Never Soar Aloft On An Enemy's Pinions.

If You Can't Say Anything Nice, Then Don't Say Anything At All.

Benefits Bestowed Upon The Evil-disposed, Increase Their Means Of Injuring You.

There Was Once A Bald Man Who Sat Down After Work On A Hot Summer's Day. A Fly Came Up And Kept Buzzing About His Bald Pate, And Stinging Him From Time To Time. The Man Aimed A Blow At His Little Enemy, But — Whack — His Palm Came On His Head Instead; Again The Fly Tormented Him, But This Time The Man Was Wiser And Said: You Will Only Injure Yourself If You Take Notice Of Dispicable Enemies.

Look And See Which Way The Wind Blows Before You Commit Yourself.

There Is Always Someone Worse Off Than Yourself.
