A flattering mouth worketh ruin.

A professor is one who talks in someone else's sleep.

A word spoken in due season, how good is it!

Advice is like snow the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind.

After all this is over, all that will really have mattered is how we treated each other.

Ah, gentle dames! it gars we greet, To think how mony consels sweet, How mony lengthened, sage advices, The husband frae the wife despises.

An expert is someone who knows more and more about less and less, until eventually he knows everything about nothing.

And may you better reck the rede, Than ever did th' adviser.

Avoid being impatient. Remember time brings roses.

Be niggards of advice on no pretense; For the worst avarice is that of sense.
