- (continued from previous page)If you don't sow in Spring you will not reap in Autumn.
Don't look at all you see and don't listen to all you hear.
There is no cure or help against death.
Every cat after his kind.
It is hard to get wool off a goat.
A borrowed horse has hard hoofs.
He who rises late never does a good days work.
A dog wakes another dog.
Don't judge the first story until the second catches upon you.
It is easy throw water on a drowned rat.
Let every day so fot itself.
The sooner the better.
