There is no robber worse than a bad book.
There is no worse robber than a bad book.
There's no fool like a learned fool.
There's no thief like a bad book.
Those who don't understand prayer -- let them go to sea.
Those who sleep with dogs will rise with fleas.
Three are powerful: the Pope, the king, and the man who has nothing.
To a quick question give a slow answer.
To a weaving that has begun, God sends threads.
