Step after step the ladder is ascended
He that cannot obey cannot command
Dogs wag their tails no so much in love to you as to your bread
Be the day weary or be the day long at last it ringeth to evensong
Goodness is not tied to greatness
Better a century of tyranny than one day of chaos
Every new is fine
Pay beforehand was never well served
Gifts blind the eyes
A shut mouth catches no flies
A tree is known by its fruit
The efforts of the poor man are his tears
The early man never borrows from the late man
He who begins many things finishes but few
The better workman the worse husband
No good deed goes unpunished
The longest day must have an end
Every man for himself and devil take the hindmost
The more you get the more you want
A blow from a lover is as sweet as the eating of raisins
Little thieves are hanged but great ones escape
Silence means consent
Never mention rope in the house of a man who has been hanged
In the country of the blind the one-eyed man is king
Ask no questions and hear no lies
Faith may move a mountain
Candlemas day put beans in the clay put candles and candle-sticks away
Everything has its proper time and place
Think twice cut once
