Wisdom of the Proverbs
Proverbs 12:25

Rules for Living by Thomas Jefferson
Thought I'd share some quotes here that blessed me a lot by Thomas Jefferson. These are entitled "Rules for Living". Enjoy!
- Never trouble another for what you can do yourself.
- Never spend money before you have it.
- Take things always by the smooth handle.
- Nothing is troublesome that we do willingly.
- When angry, count to ten before you speak, if very angry, to a hundred.
