Who can say with certainty that one will live to see the morrow?
He who wants to be famous will have many a sleepless night.
He has hard work who has nothing to do.
He who sings, frightens away all his ills.
He who will not prosper in his sleep will not prosper when awake.
He who won't be ruled by the rudder must be ruled by the rock.
Masters who sacrifice for servants will receive the gift of loyalty.
The man who can't dance says the band can't play.
