we feel more affection for our relatives and friends when we are parted from them.
ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS

not just what we say.

ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD
do not judge a thing by its attractive appearance.

A BAD WORKMAN ALWAYS BLAMES HIS TOOLS
good workmanship depends on more on quality of the tools than it does on the way in which they are used, so to blame the tools for bad workmanship is to attempt to excuse one’s own lack of skill.
BE JUST BEFORE YOU ARE GENEROUS
you have no right to be generous till you have first met the demands of justness.
You should not, for example , start giving presents to your friends before you have paid back the money you owe others.
BEAUTY IS BUT SKIN DEEP.
we cannot judge by looks alone. Physical beauty may hide an ugly nature.
