Reward

Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet

Choose the life that is most useful and habit will make it the most agreeable

He that can have patience can have what he will

Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you

Property is the fruit of labor - property is desirable - it is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich, shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise

I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.

Honesty is the best policy - when there is money in it.

The greater the obstacle, the more the glory in overcoming it

The sweetest of all sounds is praise

Give a little love to a child, and you get a great deal back

Happiness is a virtue, not its reward

Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it

To attain happiness in another world we need only to believe something, while to secure it in this world we must do something

Love is often the fruit of marriage

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph

What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals

Diligence is the mother of good fortune

Old age is like everything else. To make a success of it, you've got to start young

Not the fruit of experience, but experience itself, is the end
