A good bee never lands on a fallen flower.
Active people never have louse bites.
The iron never takes advice from the hammer.
Bad is never good until worse happens.
He who comforts never has a headache.
A beautiful thing is never perfect.
An apple never falls far from the tree.
The golden age never was the present age.
Love never dies of starvation, but often of indigestion.
A bad workman never finds a good tool.
An old ape never made a pretty grimace.
The salary of a good servant is never too high.
A monkey never thinks her baby's ugly.
Never kill a man who says nothing.
The arrow that has left the bow never returns.
Never bolt your door with a boiled carrot.
There never was an old slipper but there was an old stocking to match it.
This is better than the thing we never had.
The rich never have to seek out their relatives.
Empty pots will never boil over.
Sleepy turtles never catch up with the sunrise.
