VX is now a dead issue... It is political, really.
Whatever is produced in haste goes hastily to waste.
He who is a slave to his stomach seldom worships God.
Have patience. All things are difficult before they become easy.
Whosoever hath not patience, neither doth he possess philosophy.

I fear God and next to God I mostly fear them that fear him not.
The rose and the thorn, and sorrow and gladness are linked together.
O wise man! Wash your hands of that friend who associates with your enemies.

Kings stand in more need of wise men than wise men do of appointments at court.
