“Small children won’t let you sleep, bigger children won’t let you live.”

With money in your pocket, you are wise, handsome and you sing well too.

When the time comes for you to live, there aren’t enough years.

Better to die upright than to live on your knees.

Better a steady dime than a rare dollar.

If you want to know what God thinks of money, look at the people he gives it to.

Too humble is half proud.

Who dances at the wedding, weeps at the funeral.

The rich man who is stingy is the worst pauper.

What soap is for the body, tears are for the soul.

You do not fall because you are weak; you fall because you think you are strong.

It’s good to hope, it’s the waiting that spoils it.

When luck joins in the game, cleverness scores double.

Better a thief for a neighbor than an overzealous rabbi.

The best horse needs a whip, intelligent men need advice, and devout women need a man.

The soldiers fight, and the kings are heroes.

Better to hear curses than to be pitied.
