Who wishes to travel far spares his steed.
A child who is to be successful is not reared exclusively on a bed of down.
It is Mr. Old-Man-Monkey who marries Mrs.Old-Woman-Monkey.
He who has done evil, expects evil.
He who does not punish evil invites it.
He who holds the ladder is as bad as the thief.
He who is quick to borrow, is slow to pay.
The biggest fools are those who are paid to be wise.
Who accepts from another sells his freedom.
Nothing will content him who is not content with a little.
Who hunts two hares will catch neither.
God detests a man who rushes to accuse a neighbor.
He who is a guest in two houses, starves.
He who works as a slave, eats as a king.
There are not many who would announce their faults with a gong.
Not everyone who sings a lullaby stays awake.
Woe is he who claims to have found happiness.
Let him who will not have advice have conflict.
He is a sorry barber who has but one comb.
He who builds by the roadside has many surveyors.
He who does as he likes has no headache.
