3. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

6. Actions speak louder than words.

Actions are a better reflection of one’s character because it’s easy to say things, but difficult to act on them and follow through.

9. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Howsoever big a task is, it starts with a small step.

10. All good things come to an end.
