The house roof fights the rain, but he who is sheltered ignores it.
He who has bad breath cannot smell it.
He who wants to talk with the dogs must learn to bark.
He who offers his back should not complain if it is beaten.
He who foretells the future lies, even if he tells the truth.
He who blows into the wind gets smoke in his eyes.
The one who first shuts up in an argument is from a good family.
The greatest hero is one who has control over his desires.
He who goes to law for a sheep loses his cow.
He who lost his faith, has nothing more to lose.
She who loves an ugly man thinks him handsome.
The person who gets stuck on petty happiness will not attain great happiness.
A friend is someone who doesn't like the same people you do.
People who have bread to eat do not appreciate the severity of a famine.
One must ask about the delight of opium from one who smokes it.
He who tells no lies will not grow up.
He who licks knives will soon cut his tongue.
He who can't endure the bad will not live to see the good.
She who wants to marry her stepfather regrets it in bed.
The fates lead her who will; who won't they drag.
It doesn't make a damned bit of difference who wins the war to someone who's dead.
