It is the deaf people that create the lies

It is no shame to tell the truth

It is no secret that is known to three

It is better to be born lucky than rich

It destroys the craft not to learn it

If you put a silk dress on a goat he is a goat still

If you have one pair of good soles its better than two pairs of good uppers

If you don’t want flour on your shoes, don’t go into the mill

If you don’t know the way, walk slowly

If a rogue deceives me once, shame on him If he deceives me twice, shame on me

He who is best for me is he who shall get the best share

His own wound is what everyone feels soonest

He who pays the piper calls the tune

Idleness is a fool’s desire

He who spies is the one who kills

He may die of wind but he’ll never die of wisdom

He’d offer you an egg if you promised not to break the shell

Have it yourself, or else do without it

Don’t throw out the dirty water until you have the clean water in

Don’t tell your complaint to one who has no pity

Don’t tell your secret even to a fence

Don’t tell secrets to the children of your relatives

Don’t rest your eyes beyond what is your own

Don’t let your tongue cut your throat

Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched

Do not mistake a goats beard for a fine stallions tail

Don’t bid the devil good day till you meet him

Do not keep your tongue under your belt

Do it as if there was fire in your skin

By degrees the castles are built

Big bellies were never generous

Better sit beside him than in his place

Better is the trouble that follows death than the trouble that follows shame

A wise head keeps a shut mouth

A watched kettle never boils
