English proverbs
The brains of the fox will be of little service if you play with the paw of a lion.
God looks to clean hands, not to full ones. When in motion, to push on is easy. The fish will soon be caught that nibbles at every bait. A man has a choice to begin love, but not to end it. You must lose a fly to catch a trout. Good judgement comes from experience, and experience comes from poor judgement. He that endures is not overcome. A man may die old at thirty and young at eighty. They who have much business must have much pardon. Injuries we write in marble, kindnesses in dust. You can't judge a book by its cover. He who eats until he is ill must fast until he is well. Patience is a bitter plant, but it has sweet fruit. The hand that gives gathers. Many things grow in the garden which were never sowed. An old dog barks not in vain. Children and fools speak the truth. Sit a while and go a mile. He that weighs the wind must have a steady hand. Zeal without knowledge is the sister of folly. Better to play with the ears than with the tongue. Great barkers are no biters. Deeds are fruits, words are but leaves.
