Kind words will unlock an iron door.
Loneliness is a nest for the thoughts.
Many will show you the way once your cart has overturned.
No one says, "My pasture is not sweet."
Not every cloud brings rain.
One sturdy house is worth a hundred in ruins.
Only by falling do you learn how to mount a horse.
Part with your head, but not with your secret.
Search yourself, and you will find Allah.
See with your mind, hear with your heart.
Some will enjoy the honey, others will have to put up with the sting.
Stairs are climbed step by step.
The devil takes a hand in what is done in haste.
The devil will not bother you in a house full of children.
The man is a river, the woman a lake.
Those who do not go to war roar like lions.
What the heart thinks, the mouth speaks.
When Madame drops her cup of tea it makes no noise.
When a bald man dies the mourners give him curly hair as a present.
With a mule you have a son, with a son-in-law you only have a mule.
