“Knowledge is the treasure of a wise man.”

“Love is the hardest lesson in Christianity; but, for that reason, it should be most our care to learn it.”

“The wisdom of nations lies in their proverbs, which are brief and pithy. Collect and learn them; they are notable measures of directions for human life; you have much in little; they save time in speaking; and upon occasion may be the fullest and safest answer.”

“He that lives to forever, never fears dying.”

“Far too many executives have become more concerned with the ‘four P's’ - pay, perks, power and prestige - rather than making profits for shareholders.” (I can’t believe it was William Penn who said this, but that’s what the reference said. Anybody know any better? If he did say it, he was WAY ahead of his time.)

“He that does good for good's sake seeks neither paradise nor reward, but he is sure of both in the end.”

“Humility and knowledge in poor clothes excel pride and ignorance in costly attire.”
