Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without.
A lean agreement is better than a fat judgment.
Better to be a free dog than a caged lion.
It is better to die in revenge than to live on in shame.
Better to be an ant's head than a lion's tail.
It is better to bear your cross than to drag it.
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.
