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

One should eat or one dies.

Better loved and lost than never loved.

Even the best can make mistakes.

Time heals all wounds.

It is to be bent in time, that which bent shall be.

During the evening the lazy get in a hurry.

One must take matters into one’s own hands.

The water you collect from the stream teaches you about its source.

Don’t sell the pelt until you’ve killed the bear.

What matter if I suffer, if only my neighbor suffers too.

Being young is a fault which improves daily.

Quick wealth makes the man suspicious.

The eyes want more than the stomach.

A friend’s slap has honest intentions, your enemies’ kisses are meant to deceive.

If a blind one leads another, they both fall together.

The walls have ears.
