A joy that's shared is a joy made double.
A lie has short legs.
A maid who laughs is half taken.
A poor beauty finds more lovers than husbands.
A proverb is the child of experience.
A puff of wind and popular praise weigh the same.
A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder.
A ragged colt may make a good horse.
A shady lane breeds mud.
A small family is soon provided for.
A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.
A young man idle, an old man needy.
Absence is a shrew.
Accusing the times is but excusing ourselves.
Adversity flatters no man.
Age and wedlock bring a man to his nightcap.
Age and wedlock tame man and beast.
Ale in, wit out.
All are not merry that dance lightly.
All are not thieves that dogs bark at.
All clever men are birds of prey.
