#proverbs #english-proverbs

We have different forms assigned to us in the school of life, different gifts imparted. All is not attractive that is good. Iron is useful, though it does not sparkle like the diamond.

#quotes #william-wilberforce #personality

The appearance of a disease is swift as an arrow; its disappearance slow, like a thread. ~Chinese Proverb
