No one can have peace longer than his neighbor pleases.
Talk of the devil and you hear his bones rattle.
No barber shaves so close but another finds his work.
He who has a stepmother has the devil at his hearth.
He who is his own teacher has a fool for a pupil.
No one is happier than he who believes in his happiness.
Whose bread I eat, his song I sing.
A drowning man takes hold of his own hair.
A lazy tailor finds his thread too long.
The thief shouts to frighten the hell out of his victim.
When a camel is at the foot of a mountain then judge of his height.
A prudent man does not make the goat his gardener.
He who accepts the gift loses his liberty.
A buffalo does not feel the weight of his own horns.
He who loves drives a nail into his heart.
One man's beard is burning, and another warms his hands by it.
You must answer the devil in his own language.
The doctor must heal his own bald head.
He who has no hand cannot clench his fist.
You shake man's hand, you no shake his heart.
Even a monk can't shave his own head.
