“In the desert sand is cheap.”

Shortcuts are often ’longcuts’.

Nothing is new under the sun.

If you marry money the devil lays an egg in your storeroom.

Angry cats get scratched skin.

It is best to bite into the sour apple

You must learn to crawl before you can walk.

When the mouse is full, the flour tastes bitter.

Each day has enough of its own misery.

The end is good, everything is good.

Hurry slowly.

Only Sweden has Swedish gooseberries.

Dear child has many names.

Nobody is too young to die tomorrow.

Variety delights.

Do not weep over spilled milk.

Distress knows no law.
