The best advice one can give to the hungry is bread.
The best armor is to keep out of range.
The best way to get praise is to die.
The buyer needs a hundred eyes; the seller but one.
The cheat always lies at the feet of the cheated.
The comforter's head never aches.
The donkey won't drink if he can't see water.
The dying cannot leave their wisdom or experience to their heirs.
The eagle does not wage war against frogs.
The end of the pig is the beginning of the sausage.
The eye is blind if the mind is absent.
The fear of war is worse than war itself.
The feast passes and the fool remains.
The fish rots from the head.
The fool has to do at last what the wise did at first.
The healthy die first.
The joker confesses.
The just man may sin with an open chest of gold before him.
The person who lives by hope will die by despair.
The person who lives with cripples will soon learn to limp.
The poorhouse is filled with honest people.
