It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important.

To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.

Don't taunt the alligator until after you've crossed the creek.

Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom.

It is impossible to love and to be wise.
