A man without money is like a ship without sails.
He talks like a sausage without the fat.
A blow to another's purse is like a blow to a mountain of sand.
Zeal without knowledge is like fire without light.
A girl without a needle is like a cat without a claw.
A home without a woman is like a barn without cattle.
He who lives with an ass, sounds like an ass.
A widow, like a widower, is a house without a roof.
A man without money is like a wolf without teeth.
A man without money is like a bow without arrows.
A meal without flesh is like feeding on grass.
Be like a camel -- carrying sweets but dining on thorns.
Poverty makes thieves, like love makes poets.
Bravery without foresight is like a blind horse.
He who does as he likes has no headache.
Hidden virtues ring like a soft bell.
Making money is like digging with a needle.
Hearts do not meet one another like roads.
Money is like a guest: it comes today, leaves tomorrow.
Words are like eggs: when they are hatched they have wings.
A tent without a woman is like a violin with no strings.
