MILL AND MILLER

1. The miller sees not all the water that goes by his mill.—ROBERT BURTON, Anatomy of Melancholy

   With steady and solemn creak,
   And my little one hears in the kindly sound
   The voice of the old mill speak.—EUGENE FIELD, Nightfall in Dordrecht

   Though with patience He stands waiting, with exactness grinds He all.—LONGFELLOW, Retribution
   

5. The miller grinds more men's corn than one.—THOMAS NASHE
   

6. God's mill grinds slow, but sure.—Proverb
