A forest is the poor man's overcoat.
A drowning man will clutch at straws.
The world is a pot, man but a spoon in it.
The earth is man's only friend.
The man is heaven and earth in miniature.
Blame is a lazy man's wages.
Children are a poor man's riches.
Children are a poor man's wealth.
An idle man is the devil's pillow.
The wood is the poor man's coat.
A stingy man is always poor.
One man alone is prey to the wolf.
The stubborn man is ruled by a fool.
First God, then the white man.
War is to a man what bed is to a woman.
A greedy man is always poor.
The drowning man is not troubled by rain.
Bed is the poor man's opera.
A man in love mistakes a pimple for a dimple.
A silent man is the best one to listen to.
The mouth of a man is a terrible opening.
