Vigilance is not only the price of liberty, but of success of any sort. - Henry Ward Beecher They that are on their guard and appear ready to receive their adversaries, are in much less danger of being attacked than the supine, secure and negligent. - Benjamin Franklin Chance will not do the work. Chance sends the breeze; But if the pilot slumber at the helm, The very wind that wafts us tow'rds the port May dash us on the shoals. The steersman's part Is vigilance, or blow it rough or smooth. - Ben Jonson The master's eye makes the horse fat. - Old Latin Saying A prudent person, having to do with a designing one, will always distrust most when appearances are fairest. - Samuel Richardson There is a significant Latin proverb, to wit, Who will guard the guards? - Henry Wheeler Shaw (used pseudonyms Josh Billings and Uncle Esek) It is the enemy who keep the sentinel watchful. - Madame Anne Sophie Swetchine (Soimonoff) He is most free from danger, who, even when safe, is on his guard. - Syrus (Publilius Syrus)
