Of all your troubles, great and small, the greatest are the ones that don't happen at all.

It ain't no use putting up your umbrella till it rains!

The wise man thinks about his troubles only when there is some purpose in doing so; at other times he thinks about other things

If pleasures are greatest in anticipation, just remember that this is also true of troubles

If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about the answers

The terrorists are still here. I really do worry about our troops' being sent overseas and depleting our homeland security.
