No man ever was glorious, who was not laborious.

Sloth like rust, consumes faster than labor wears, while the used key is always bright

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

The Man who with undaunted toils,/ sails unknown seas to unknown soils,/ With various wonders feasts his Sight: What stranger wonders does he write?

At the working man's house hunger looks in but dares not enter

They that study much, ought not to eat so much as those that work hard, their Digestion being not so good.
