Never hang your hat higher than you can reach.
Never let a boy do a man's work.
Never mistake chicken shit for an egg.
Sick people have no friends.
Speaking French is no proof of intelligence.
Thanks cost nothing.

The beggar that begs near another beggar will never be rich.
The crow may be caged, but its thoughts are in the cornfield.
The ear is only a door.
The frog knows more about the rain than the calendar.
The goat that climbs up the rock also has to go down.
The higher the monkey climbs, the more it is exposed to danger.
The monkey knows which branch to swing on.
The mouth of a woman takes no holiday.
The parson christens his own child first.
The pumpkin vine never bears watermelons.
The sea breeze blows the pelican where he wants to go.
The tail of an ox says, "Time goes, time comes."
What you don't know is bigger than you.
What you lose in the fire, you will find in the ashes.
