- A wise child is better than a foolish king.
You are better alone than in bad company.
It is hard to take wool off a goat.
It is finely spun thread that does not become visible in the sunbeam.
A flaxan thread woven in silken geer in spite of art the shoves will appear.
Praise the fair day at night.
It is never too late to learn.
Mocking is catching.
Between two stools you often come to the ground.
We know the worth of water when the well runs dry.
Think twice before you speak once.
Industry is the mother of good luck.- Collector
