Poverty is not a shame; but the being ashamed of it is.
|
The pot calls the kettle black.
|
Walls have ears.
|
Losers are always in the wrong.
|
An honest man's word is as good as his bond.
|
Truth is mighty and will prevail.
|
The fewer the words, the better the prayer.
|
Even the weariest river winds somewhere safe to sea.
|
Better a lean peace than a fat victory.
|
Physician, heal thyself.
|
Fine feathers make fine birds.
|
It is a silly fish that is caught twice, with the same bait.
|
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
|
A silver key can open an iron lock.
|
As the call, so the echo.
|
The house shows the owner.
|
A honey tongue, a heart of gall.
|
Idleness is the mother of all evil.
|
Many things are lost for want of asking.
|
Caution is the parent of safety.
