A gentle word opens an iron gate |
Dip your tongue in wisdom, then give counsel |
From walking - something; from sitting - nothing |
God promises a safe landing but not a calm passage. |
God promises a safe landing but not a calm passage. |
If you call one wolf, you invite the pack |
If you cannot serve, you cannot rule |
If you cannot serve, you cannot rule |
If you let everyone walk over you, you become a carpet |
If you wish to drown, do not torture yourself with shallow water |
Pretty wife, old wine - many friends |
Seize opportunity by the beard, for it is bald behind |
There would be miracles if youth could know and age could do |
When the sea turned into honey, the poor man lost his spoon |
Work as though you will live a hundred years; think as though you will die tomorrow |
