Charms strike the sight , but merit wins the soul Heaven ne'er helps the men who will not act Newspaper are the wood mirror Spare the rod and spoil the child The less men think, the more they talk The more one has , the more one wants The nearer the bone the sweeter the meat The pen is mightier than the sword The will of the people is the best law Well begun is half done When money speaks the truth is silent When the candles are out , all women are fair
