Fear and restlessness kill more than do illnesses.
Do not call the forest that shelters you a jungle.
What the lion cannot manage to do the fox can.
From a broken violin do not expect fine music.
Do not allow sins to get beyond creeping.
Fear those who do not fear God.
Women do not drink liquor, but it disappears when they are present.
Tell everybody your business and they will do it for you.
Do not stay too long when the husband is not home.
Unless what we do is useful, glory is vain.
Do not scare the birds you are going to shoot.
Do not be like the mosquito that bites the owner of the house.
Don't look for bad things in the good that you do.
Children of the same mother do not always agree.
A foreigner scratches you where you do not itch.
Ears do not grow higher than the head.
When the Tsar sins the Empire must do penance.
Many are the roads that do not lead to the heart.
A termite can do nothing to a stone save lick it.
How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then rest afterward.
Do not make the dress before the child is born.
