“If the head is dumb, the body suffers.”

One should not change horses in the middle of the stream.

Don’t throw away the old bucket until you know whether the new one holds water.

After rain comes sunshine.

They who want to sing will always find a song.

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.

In darkness all cats are grey.

You have to correct your mouth according to your lunch pack.

Love is like dew that falls on both nettles and lilies.

A man without money is like a boat without sails.

It’s the thought that counts.

Don’t saw off the branch you’re sitting on.

As you make your bed, so will you sleep.

If you give someone a finger he wants the whole hand.

Treat others as you would want to be treated yourself.

Evil gun powder doesn’t go away easily.

What doesn’t kill, hardens.
