  2. Proverbs

    It is a bad wind that does not blow somebody good.
    A cat may look at a king.
    A fool and his money are easily parted.
    Out of sight out of mind.
    The wise man changes his mind, the fool never.
    The cock crows but the hen delivers the goods.
    Soft words often serve in a hard argument.
    Practice makes perfect.
