Day 18 - More awesome sayings!

Definitely some fabulous proverbs today :)

Loners who care only for themselves spit on the common good.

It's not right to go easy on the guilty,
or come down hard on the innocent.

Authorities: Justice please!

Listening to gossip is like eating cheap candy;
do you really want junk like that in your belly?

Slack habits and sloppy work
are as bad as vandalism.

God's name is a place of protection—
good people can run there and be safe.

Pride first, then the crash,
but humility is precursor to honor.

Answering before listening
is both stupid and rude.

A healthy spirit conquers adversity,
but what can you do when the spirit is crushed?

could we also use the word attitude here? I think the correct attitude can conquer adversity, and the good thing about attitudes is that we can chose them

Wise men and women are always learning,
always listening for fresh insights.

Do a favor and win a friend forever;
nothing can untie that bond.

Words satisfy the mind as much as fruit does the stomach;
good talk is as gratifying as a good harvest.

How true this is! *sigh*

Words kill, words give life;
they're either poison or fruit—you choose.

The words we speak I would say.

Find a good spouse, you find a good life—
and even more: the favor of God!

The poor speak in soft supplications;
the rich bark out answers.

Friends come and friends go,
but a true friend sticks by you like family.

I know you're my friend if you read this far and are enjoying it :)
