Midsummer night is not long but it sets many cradles rocking.

Money opens all gates but heaven’s.

He laughs best who laughs last.

Don’t cross the stream to find water.

The more chefs, the worse the soup.

Joy and sorrow are next door neighbors.

Children do as you do, not as you say.

Cookie searches for a wife.

The exception confirms the rule.

A peacock has too little in its head and too much in its tail.

Don’t sell the fur until the bear has been shot.
