You cannot take it with you when you die

Women laugh when they can, and weep when they will

Wolves rend the sheep when the shepherds fail

Whoso learn young, forgets not when he is old

Who learns young, forgets not when he is old

While the word is in your mouth, it is your own; when ’tis one spoken ’tis another’s

Thou clearly knowest when to speak, and when to keep silent

When in Rome do as Romans do

When candles are out all cats are grey

When candles are out, all women are fair

When children stand quiet they have done some ill

When children stand quiet, they have done some harm

When flatterers meet, the devil goes to dinner

When fortune knocks, be sure to open the door

When gold speaks, you may hold your tongue

When good cheer is lacking, our friends will be packing

When guns speak it is too late to argue

When in doubt, do nowt

When / Whenever / it rains, it pours

When a disease returns, no medicine can cure it

When a man is going down-hill, everyone will give him a push

When a new book appears, read an old one

When an ass climbs a ladder, we may find wisdom in women

When angry, count a hundred

When bees are old, they yield no honey

We pay when we are old for the misdeeds of our youth

Well kens the mouse when the cat’s out of the house

Unbidden quests are often welcomest when they are gone

Trust not a woman when she weeps

The tod never sped better than when he went his own errand

The rich man may dine when he will, the poor man when he may

The fox fares best when he is cursed

The devil is never nearer than when we are talking of him

The best fish smell when they are three days old

Take time, when time is, for time will away
