Who pleasure gives, Shall joy receive

Many a man thinks he is buying pleasure, when he is really selling himself to it.

Receive before you write, but write before you pay.

Nothing brings more pain than too much pleasure; nothing more bondage than too much liberty, (or libertinism.)

The poor man must walk to get meat for his stomach, the rich man to get a stomach to his meat

If thou dost ill, the joy fades, not the pains; If well, the pain doth fade, the joy remains.
