When we don't have what we like, we must like what we have.
When you are rich you suffer in a more comfortable way.
When you can't find peace within yourself, it's useless to seek it elsewhere.
When you have not what you like, you must like what you have.
Where love sets the table food tastes at its best.
Where power reigns there is no room for reason.
Where the hostess is beautiful the wine is tasty.
Where the woman goes the devil follows.
Where wine appears the doctor disappears.
Who can't pretend cannot govern.
Who is born a chicken loves scratching.
Who is known as an early riser may sleep longer.
Who knows nothing doubts nothing.
Who loves well, chastises well.
Who rises late must trot all day.
Who wishes to travel far spares his steed.
Whoever rubs himself with garlic will not smell of cloves.
Whores and thieves are always very pious.
Why hide from God what the saints already know?
Why kill time when one can employ it.
Widows comfort themselves when they remarry, widowers take revenge.
