“A guilty dog always barks.”

Ambition is putting a ladder against the sky.

The more acquaintances, the more danger.

A whistling girl and a crowing hen never came to a good end.

In the boy see the man.

Courtesy is the password to safety.

The man who loves to argue is left without friends.

Courage without conduct is like a ship without ballast.

Don’t meddle in others’ affairs unless you want your own nose scraped a little.

The man that blushes is not quite a brute.

Industry is fortune’s right hand and frugality her left.

It costs something to be a Christian, but it costs more to be a sinner.

Count no man successful until he is dead.

Always put your best foot forward.

Industry need not wish.

Contempt is the best return for scurrility.

A dirty floor means a busy stove.
