A friend of mine, Bonnie recently lent me a book which she recently purchased. It's a classic Australian book on household tips and recipes from the early settlers, back in the 1800's. I love great sayings and quotations and this book has some real classics. Let me share a few with you...
{Listeners never hear an good of themselves}
{Have a place for everything and everything in it's place}
(I think this one would have been my Dad's fravourite!)
{Make hay while the sun shines}
{Where there's a will there's a way}
{Patience is the key to success}
{Always leave the table able to eat a little more}
{Honesty is the best policy}
{Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise}
{Out of debt, out of danger}
{A boy's best friend is his mother}
{Never put off what can be done today}
{If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well}
{Love your wife if you wish her to love you}
{Avoid intemperance, as you would the fiercest tiger}
Well, I must say a few of those quotations bought back a few memories! I remember my Dad and Mum quoting a few of them to my brother and I when we where children.
