George Herbert

The horse thinkes one thing, and he that sadles him another.

Little pitchers have wide eares.

All things have their place, knew wee how to place them.

All things require skill but an appetite.

Would you know what mony is, go borrow some.

He that hath no ill fortune is troubled with good.

He that is not handsome at twenty, nor strong at thirty, nor rich at forty, nor wise at fifty, will never bee handsome, strong, rich, or wise.

Who eates his cock alone must saddle his horse alone.

Hee that lies with the dogs riseth with fleas.

He that makes his bed ill, lies there.

When you are an anvill, hold you still; when you are a hammer, strike your fill.

Although the sun shine, leave not thy cloake at home.

Little sticks kindle the fire, great ones put it out.

Be not a baker if your head be of butter.

The absent partie is still faultie.

Keep not ill men company, lest you increase the number.

Hee wrongs not an old man that steales his supper from him.

He is not poore that hath little, but he that desireth much.

All is not gold that glisters.

He will burne his house to warme his hands.

The child saies nothing but what it heard by the fire.

A man's discontent is his worst evill.

The best mirrour is an old friend.

Goe not for every griefe to the physitian, nor for every quarrell to the lawyer, nor for every thirst to the pot.
