Better ask twice than go wrong once.
Better is better.
Better no spoon than no soup.
Better one living word than a hundred dead ones.
Better twice remembered than once forgotten.
Between the anvil and the hammer.
Big trees cast more shadow than fruit.
Birds of prey do not sing.
Boredom is the father of all sins.
Both noble and common blood are the same color.
Brandy is as lead in the morning, silver at noon, and gold at night.
Buying is cheaper than asking.
Charity looks at the need and not at the cause.
Cheerful company shortens the journey.
Cheese and bread make the cheeks red.
Compliments cost nothing, yet many pay dearly for them.
Crime is cunning; it puts an angel in front of every devil.
Criticism of the state is all right, but don't forget the nation is you.
Cunning surpasses strength.
Do not despise an insignificant enemy, nor a slight wound.
Doctors are the signposts to heaven.
