What is serving God? ''Tis doing good to man.
If your head is wax, don't walk in the sun.
When the well's dry, we know the worth of water.
Virtue and trade a child's best portion.
A good example is the best sermon.
Don't judge a man's wealth or piety by their Sunday appearances.
Those who in quarrels interpose most often wipe a bloody nose.
He that lies down with dogs shall rise up with fleas.”
