Surprised I havn't seen this one yet:

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

Walk softly and carry a big stick.

A friend in need is a friend in deed. Or as we used to say in the summer of love (1967 for you puppies) "A friend with weed is a friend in deed".

Don't bite the hand that feeds you.

One man's ceiling is another man's floor.

The older I get, the smarter my dad becomes. He is the smartest man I know. Virtually eveything he ever told me turned out to be true.

On that note,

When I was sixteen, my father was the most ignorant man in the world. By the time I reached 21, I was surprised at how much he had learned in five years

Here is something my Great Grandmother told my little brother when he got in trouble for stuff his "friends" would do.

If you run with the wolves you howl with the wolves.

Your actions are speaking so loudly I can't hear what your saying.

Beauty is only skin-deep but ugly goes to the bone.

Failure teaches success as long as you are willing to learn from it and don't stop trying.

Ignorance can be corrected but stupidity is permanent.
