The plant often removed cannot thrive.
The pleasure of what we enjoy is lost by coveting more.
The poor man seeks only a crumb, then finds he still hungers.
The poor man's budget is full of schemes.
The presence of the doctor is the beginning of the cure.
The road to success is lined with many tempting parking spaces.
The same hammer that breaks the glass forges the steel.
The secret of patience is doing something else in the meantime.
The shallower the brook, the more it babbles.
The shoemaker's son always goes barefoot.
The silent dog is the first to bite.
The soul is not where it lives, but where it loves.
The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord.
The streets of London are paved with gold.
The style is the man.
The superior doctor prevents sickness;/ The mediocre doctor attends to impending sickness;/ The inferior doctor treats actual sickness.
The tallest tree is rooted in the ground.
The time to make friends is before you need them.
The weakest goes to the wall.
The weakness of an enemy forms part of our own strength.
The wolf changes his coat, but not his disposition.
