“The master has long arms, but they don’t reach heaven.”

Variety delights.

Do not weep over spilled milk.

Distress knows no law.

A spoken word and a thrown stone cannot be called back.

The loss on the swings is won back on the merry-go-round.

If you lose one, there are a thousand more to choose from.

‘Sour’ said the fox about rowanberries.

Time passes by quickly when you are enjoying yourself.

The end justifies the means.

An upstanding peasant is bigger than a nobleman on his knees.

Pride goes before fall.

Slow but steady.

Take the custom where you come.

The miser is his own mother-in-law.

Honesty lasts the longest.

Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth.
