Pearls of Thought Ram's Horn Adage Collected Sayings
Candor without courtesy is not courage. The explosive is not always persuasive. Pure idealism cannot be promoted by impure realism. Hardness of heart is not a sign of strength. Corruption in the heart tarnishes the crown. The good is seldom expedited by expediency. Men who carve their own fortunes must expect their own fingers. Instant perfection is valueless as instant education. Diligence in corn but not character. Fire of feud burns the watcher. Do not keep company in your heart you owe apologies for. Underground currents of desire more dangerous than winds of temptation.
