Wise Sayings Well Said.

The fewer words the better prayer.— Luther. Chastity is lost but once—never to be recalled.—Ovid. Wedlock’s a lane where there is no taming.—Mias Mulock. Love and money—pickpockets that never fail.— Prince de Ligne. To be really beautiful and attractive, a woman should be rather statuesque than picturesque.— Eugene Sue. A woman’s natural protector is less an aged father or tall brother than a very young child.— Mme. de Girardin. Of all the joys that brighten suffering earth, what joy is welcomed like a new-born child?— Mrs. Norton. My daughter, if the cross comes to yon as a wife, you must carry it as a wife.
