Quotes by : George Herbert

The best mirror is an old friend.

Time is the rider that breaks youth.

A man of great memory without learning hath a rock and a spindle and no staff to spin.

War makes thieves and peace hangs them.

Life is half spent before we know what it is.

There would be no great men if there were no little ones.

Be calm in arguing; for fierceness makes error a fault, and truth discourtesy.

Skill and confidence are an uncon-quered army.

Good words are worth much, and cost little.

God's mill grinds slow but sure.
