People count up the faults of those who are keeping them waiting.
People count up the faults of those who keep them waiting.
When a blind man bears the standard, pity those who follow.
When the blind man carries the banner, woe to those who follow.
He who begins too much accomplishes little.
He who drinks no more still likes to see the beer pulled.
He who is the judge between two friends loses one of them.
He who starts singing too high will never finish the song.
The preacher must be like a chicken who always has an egg in reserve.
Who bathes his hands in blood will have to wash them with tears.
Who has never tasted what is bitter does not know what is sweet.
He who follows advice from women will end up in hell.
He who is his own judge never finds a reason to condemn.
When two men quarrel, the one who yields first displays the nobler character.
He who dreams for too long will become like his shadow.
He who has a true friend, has no need of a mirror.
