Be on a horse when you go in search of a better one.
Be resolved and the thing is done.
Be skeptical; long garments can also hide big feet.
Beautiful girls are seldom happy, intelligent boys are seldom beautiful.
Beautiful roads never go far.
Beauty is the wisdom of women. Wisdom is the beauty of men.
Before you beat the dog, find out the name of his master.
Before you prepare to improve the world, look around your own house three times.
Behind an able man there are always other able men.
Being in the right does not depend on having a loud voice.
Believe your servants but do not listen to them.
Better a live beggar than a dead king.
Better be kind at home than burn incense in a far place.
Better go than send.
Better the cold blast of winter than the hot breath of a pursuing elephant.
Better the cottage where one is merry than the palace where one weeps.
Better to be a dog in peacetime that a man in wartime.
Better to do a kindness near home than go far away to burn incense.
Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
Better to satisfy the body than to tarnish the soul.
Big chickens don't peck at small seeds.
