Goodwill makes the road shorter.
As long as I am running my father will still have a son.
A sleeping fox finds no meat.
For every ailing foot, there is a slipper.
God is big, but the forest is bigger.
Never promise a poor person, and never owe a rich one.
Where blood has been shed the tree of forgiveness cannot grow.

The earth is not thirsty for the blood of the warriors but for the sweat of man's labor.
One who does not look ahead remains behind.
