Whether the pitcher strikes the stone, or the stone the pitcher, it is bad for the pitcher

Truth has a good face, but bad clothes

To a full belly all meat is bad

The receiver is as bad as the thief

The cheap buyer takes bad meat

That which is good for the back, is bad for the head

Take the good with the bad

Self is a bad counsellor

Pardoning the bad is injuring the good

Money is a good servant, but a bad master

Many a good father has but a bad son

Many a good cow has a bad calf

Make the best of a bad job

Nothing so bad, as not to be good for something

Nothing is so bad but it might have been worse

No so bad, as not to be good for something

There is nothing to choose between bad tongues and wicked ears

The heeler is as bad as the steeler

There is nothing good or bad but thinking makes it so

To put a good face on a bad business

There is no devil so bad as a she-devil

Hope is a good breakfast, but a bad supper

Don’t throw your money after bad

Education polishes good natures, and correcteth bad ones

A good word costs no more than a bad one

All are good lasses, but whence come the bad wives?

Bad excuses are worse than none

Bad news has wings

Bad news travels fast

Be good with the good and bad with the bad

Better be alone than in bad company

He hurts the good who spares the bad

He that spares the bad injures the good

A bad shift is better than none

A bad shearer never had a good sickle
