“A thief thinks everybody steals.”

We can’t change the direction of the wind, but we can adjust the sails.

A tree starts with a seed.

It is little use to dig a well after the house has caught fire.

Pull someone by the ears and his head will follow.

A guilty conscience is a hidden enemy.

Blaming your faults on your nature does not change the nature of your faults.

Alertness and courage are life’s shields.

Don’t delay today’s work until tomorrow.

Every dog is a tiger in his own street.

A man without money is like a bow without arrows.

Complaining is the weak man’s weapon.

Don’t eat your bread on someone else’s table.

There are three uncertainties: woman, wind, and wealth.

Life is a bridge, cross over it, but build no house on it.

The eyes do not see what the mind does not want.

The way to overcome the angry man is with gentleness, the evil man with goodness, the miser with generosity and the liar with truth.
