  1. As a man lives so shall he die.
    All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
    Laugh and the world laughs with you.
    Cry and you'll cry alone.
    We will never rest in this world until we rest in peace.
    Time flies and death approaches.
    The more hurry, the less speed.
    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
