Better be wise by the misfortunes of others than by your own.
In critical moments even the very powerful have need of the weakest.
Injuries may be forgiven, but not forgotten.
It is easy to be brave from a safe distance.
Persuasion is often more effectual than force.
United we stand, divided we fall.
Slow and steady wins the race.
It is not only fine feathers that make fine birds.
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office.
