Contraries are cured by contraries.
Could everything be done twice it would be done better.
Curiosity killed the cat.
Curses are like chickens, they always come home.
Custom is a tyrant.
Danger past, God forgotten.
Death defies the doctor.
Death is the great leveller.
Death is the poor man's best physician.
Desperate cuts must have desperate cures.
Divide and rule.
Do not drink poison to quench a thirst.
Do not dwell in a city whose governor is a physician.
Do not look to the peaceful man for cudgels.
Dog does not eat dog.
Doing is better than saying.
Don't cross the bridge till you come to it.
Don't cross the bridge till you get to it.
Don't cut off your nose to spite your face.
Don't just cross a river--cross it bearing fire!
Don't meet troubles half-way.
