The pitcher doth not go so often to the well, but it comes home broken at last

To listen well is as powerful a means of influence as to talk well and is as essential to all true conversation

To persecute the unfortunate is like throwing stones on one fallen into a well

Everyone speaks well of the bridge which carries him over

You can’t fare well, but you must cry roast meat

He hath lived ill that knows not how to die well

Dig a well before you are thirsty

Thatch your roof before rainy weather, dig your well before you become parched with thirst

If a thing’s worth doing, it’s worth doing well
