Every cloud has a silver lining
The dogs may bark, but the caravan moves on
A nail is driven out by another nail. Habit is overcome by habit.
It is a double pleasure to deceive the deceiver.
If you wish to know the mind of a man, listen to his words.
Do not look where you fell, but where you slipped.
A thorn defends the rose, harming only those who would steal the blossom.
A wise man hears one word and understands two.
Never find fault with the absent.
In times of trouble leniency becomes crime.
Man is the measure of all things.
