Never let a boy do a man's work.
Never mistake chicken shit for an egg.
The pumpkin vine never bears watermelons.
Speech is often repented, silence never.
Never wear a brown hat in Friesland.
Never pet a bear unless it is a rug.
A cat with gloves never catches mice.
Who ceases to be a friend never was one.
A turkey never voted for an early Christmas.
Teeth will never quarrel with the tongue.
Never trust the advice of a man in difficulty.
Learning is a golden urn that can never be stolen.
One never tires working for oneself.
Water never loses its way.
Salt will never be worm-eaten.
The mice will never play with the kittens.
Gold that falls to earth never dims.
Listeners never hear good of themselves.
Opportunities neglected can never be recovered.
Never sign nothing by neon light.
Men made money; money never made men.
