He who is unable to dance blames it in the stony yard.
He who is unable to dance says the yard is stony.
He who wants pearls has to dive into the sea.
Who loses honor can lose nothing else.
A woman who likes to wash will find water.
One who sits by the well will never go thirsty.
The deep sea can be fathomed, but who knows the hearts of men?
He who goes to bed hungry dreams of pancakes.
There are men who walk through the woods and see no trees.
He who has a dog need not bark himself.
Who lives in a quiet house has plenty.
Those who dig an evil hole will fall into it.
One who seeks no friends is his own enemy.
The nights are short for him who married late in life.
Who lives in exile finds that spring has no charm.
Examine what is said, not him who speaks.
Who does not go with you, go with him.
He who accepts favors, pawns his freedom.
They know not their own defects who search for the defects of others.
A fool who knows Latin is never a real fool.
He who asks the fewest favors is the best received.
