When God brings death, the devil brings heirs.

Don’t waste gunpowder on dead crows.

Faith can move mountains.

In the desert sand is cheap.

‘If it isn’t one thing it’s the other’ said the girl with a nosebleed.

One shouldn’t buy a pig in a sack.

Better to flee than to fence poorly.

Better to dam the brook than the creek.

Each bird sings according to its own beak.

A beloved child has many names.

Sleeping farmer gets a dreaming farmhand.

Death is the last doctor.

Evil shall by evil be expelled.

Do not wake the bear that sleeps.

First to the mill will first grind.
