Beauty doesn't exist, men only dream it.
Beauty is power.
Beauty never travels in a group.
Better a handful of dry dates and content therewith than to own the Gate of Peacocks and be kicked in the eye by a broody camel.
Better a thousand enemies outside the tent than one within.
Better make profit out of manure than losses with musk.
Better to be a free dog than a caged lion.
Better to have bread and an onion with peace than stuffed fowl with strife.
Beware the man who lavishes too much praise on you, he will later run you down.
Beware: some liars tell the truth.
Blind eyes see better than blind hearts.
Both the fast and the slow will meet each other on the ferry boat.
Bravery without intelligence is not bravery.
Children are buttonholes that hold their parents together.
Choose your neighbor before your house and your companion before the road.
Conversation is like making love; the man is the question, the woman the answer, and the union of both will bear fruit.
Dawn does not come to awaken a man a second time.
Do not ridicule the thin-bearded when you yourself have no beard.
Do not stand in a dangerous place trusting in miracles.
Do not tell secrets in front of servants.
Don't pour away your water on the strength of a mirage.
