“It is best to be off with the old love before you are on with the new.”

The road to a friend’s house is never long.

No one gets into trouble without his own help.

Don’t throw away dirty water before you have more clean water.

A small fire that warms you, is better than a large one that burns you.

If three people say you are an ass, put on a bridle.

Age may wrinkle the face, but lack of enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.

When love is not madness, it is not love.

If you want to be respected, you must respect yourself.

Woe to the house where the hen crows and the rooster is still.

Faults are thick where love is thin.

Bad is never good until worse happens.

What the sober man has in his heart, the drunkard has on his lips.

People with nothing to say, often speak the most.

A man too busy to take care of his health is like a mechanic too busy to take care of his tools.

Where there is love, there is pain.

Keep not two tongues in one mouth.
