Better an ounce from the ground than a pound from the roof

An ounce of hypocrisy is worth a pound of ambition.

An ounce of mother is worth a pound of clergy.

When a person is down in the world, an ounce of help is better than a pound of preaching.

The day is short, the labor long, the workers are idle, and reward is great, and the Master is urgent

There is no pity for a man who moans about living in one town and does not move to another.
