If it ain't broke, don't mend it
If it don't live, don't kill it; If you have none, don't spend it; If it ain't empty, don't fill it. |

The size of the pencil is not as important as the quality of the writing.
Corollaries: The quality of the writing is affected by the quality of the paper. Regardless of how well one writes, it is difficult to write at all unless there is lead in the pencil. |

When you need the money, your shift is cancelled; when you have a weekend planned, you have to do overtime.
