“Cookie searches for a wife.”

Better to flee than to fence poorly.

Better to dam the brook than the creek.

Each bird sings according to its own beak.

A beloved child has many names.

Sleeping farmer gets a dreaming farmhand.

Death is the last doctor.

Evil shall by evil be expelled.

Do not wake the bear that sleeps.

First to the mill will first grind.

All roads lead to Rome.

Rather one bird in the hand, than ten in the woods.

Those are wise that heed advice, but no one should heed dissuasive advice.

Even a small star shines in the darkness.

All eggs should not be put in one basket.

Own praise has a bad smell.

In a small house God has his corner, in a large house He has to stand in the hall.
