A man separated from his reflective belt is no man at all.

Virtue alone is sufficient to make a man great, glorious, and happy.

At the working man’s house, hunger looks in but dares not enter.

...it is prodigious the quantity of good that may be done by one man if he will make a business of it.

That man alone loves himself rightly who procures the greatest possible good to himself through the whole of his existence and so pursues pleasure as not to give for it more than it is worth.

Success has ruin'd many a man.

The busy man has few idle visitors; to the boiling pot the flies come not.

None but the well-bred man knows how to confess a fault, or acknowledge himself in an error.

The poor man must walk to get meat for his stomach, the rich man to get a stomach to his meat.
