If there are no nightingales one must settle for owls.
If there is room in your heart there is room in your house.
If you have no money, be polite.
If you hunt with cats you'll catch mice.
If you want some lies to be believed wrap them up in truths.
If your head is made of butter, don't be a baker.
It is a bold mouse that makes her nest in a cat's ear.
It is better to suffer for truth than to prosper by falsehood.
It is hard to pay for bread that has already been eaten.
It is no disgrace to be poor, but it can be inconvenient.
It is too late to learn to swim when the water is up to your lips.
It's no disgrace to be poor, but it can be inconvenient.
It's possible to light another man's candle without damaging your own.
Keep your nose out of another's mess.
Lawyers and painters can soon change white to black.
Let no one look into your heart or into your purse.
Love has produced some heroes but many idiots too.
Love is blind and thinks that others don't see either.
Love is one-eyed, hate is blind.
Luck stops at the door and inquires whether prudence is within.
Many have too much, but none enough.
