A proverb is a short sentence based on long
experience
Charity begins at home
Everyman has his faults
Every law has a loop-hole
Forbidden fruit is sweetest
Love makes the ugly beautiful
A full purse never lacks friends
Caution is the eldest of wisdom
Slow work produces fine goods
Gossiping and lying go together
Fear that man who fears not god
Six feet of earth all men are equal
Where there is smoke, there is fire
Do not put the cart before the horse
No man has ever escaped his destiny
Better be alone than in bad company
Great events spring from little causes
It is the crying child that gets the milk
Who chatters to you will chatter of you
One good friend is better than cash in purse
Everything looks yellow to the jaundiced eye
Sometimes words wound more than swords
A feather in hand is better than a bird in the air
Zeal without knowledge is like a fire without light
Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it
Dry bread at home is better than roast meat outside
A man without a smiling face must not open a shop
A crow is never the whiter for washing herself
often
We can see seven faults in another, not one of our
own ten
A jealous woman's venom is more fatal than a mad
dog's tooth
When a points a finger at someone else, his three
fingers are pointing at himself
