Women and wine, game and deceit, make the wealth small, and the wants great

Women are great talkers

Time is the great healer

Time is a great healer

Thrift is a great revenue

Those that eat cheries with great persons, shall have their eyes squirted out with the stones

There would be no great ones if there were no little ones

Virtue and vice divide the worlds, but vice has got the greater share

The more riches a fool hath, the greater fool he is

The little cannot be great unless he devours many

The frog in the well knows nothing of the great ocean

The dainties of the great are the tears of the poor

The command of custom is great

Small sorrows speak; great one are silent

Small rain lays great dust

Small is the seed of every greatness

Sleep is the greatest thief, for it steals half one’s life

Poverty is no disgrace, but it is a great inconvenience

Petty thieves are hanged, the great ones go free

Many small make a great

Of a small spark a great fire

No great loss without some small gain

The humble suffer from the folly of the great

The highest tree has the greatest fall

The higher up, the greater the fall

Little thieves are hanged, but great ones escape

Little strokes fell great oaks

Little sticks kindle the fire;great ones put it out

Little pigeons can carry great messages

Little leak will sink a great ship

Little chips light great fires

The greatest talkers are the least doers

The greatest step is that out of doors

The greatest calf, is not the sweetest veal

The greatest blesing is a pleasant friend
