It is better to bear your cross than to drag it.
Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without.
It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
All gardeners know better than other gardeners.
Be on a horse when you go in search of a better one.
Better a live beggar than a dead king.
Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
It is better to be without a book than to believe it entirely.
It is better to be the victim of injustice than to be unjust yourself.
Better the head of a village than the tail of a town.
Better your own cod than another's duck.
Better the child cry, than the mother sigh.
Better to be a free bird than a captive king.
Better a blind horse than an empty halter.
Better lose the anchor than the whole ship.
Better poor on land than rich at sea.
Better poor with honor than rich with shame.
It is better to blow than burn your mouth.
No better witnesses than your own eyes.
A living dog is better than a dead lion.
Better the second husband of a widow than the first.
