“During the evening the lazy get in a hurry.”

Opportunity makes the thief.

Forbidden road is often heavily worn.

Best to learn from other people’s injury.

Butterflies forget that they were once caterpillars.

Old is oldest.

When a blind man carries the lame man, both go forward.

It is darkest before dawn.

Away is good but home is best.

Rather an honest ‘no’ than an insincere ‘yes’.

New brooms sweep the best.

Don’t buy the pig in the bag.

Morning hour has gold in its mouth.

It is easy to cut broad strips off other people’s leather.

One cannot both eat one’s cookie and keep it.

The closer to the source, the clearer the water.

To lazy pigs the ground is always frozen.
