    1. Spend, spend and God will send
    Spare, spare and you'll be ever bare.
    2. A man without learning and wearing good clothes is like a gold ring on a pig's nose.
    3. If you want an advice go to a friend
    if you want money go to a stranger
    if you want nothing go to a relation.
    4. The fox never sent out a better messenger than himself.
    5. A poor man is a blind man, and a blind man is a poor man, and blind the poor man is, for the former seeth no man and the latter no man seeth.
    6. Money never made a man nor wealth a happy home.
