| A bad beginning makes a bad ending |
| A bad corn promise is better than a good lawsuit |
| A bad workman quarrels with his tools |
| A bargain is a bargain |
| A beggar can never be bankrupt |
| A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush |
| A bird may be known by its song |
| A black hen lays a white egg |
| A blind leader of the blind |
| A blind man would be glad to see |
| A broken friendship may be soldered, but will never be sound |
| A burden of one's own choice is not felt |
| A burnt child dreads the fire |
| A cat in gloves catches no mice |
| A city that parleys is half gotten |
| A civil denial is better than a rude grant |
| A clean fast is better than a dirty breakfast |
| A clean hand wants no washing |
| A clear conscience laughs at false accusations |
| A close mouth catches no flies |
| A cock is valiant on his own dunghill |
| A cracked bell can never sound well |
| A creaking door hangs long on its hinges |
| A curst cow has short horns |
| A danger foreseen is half avoided |
| A drop in the bucket |
| A drowning man will catch at a straw |
| A fair face may hide a foul heart |
| A fault confessed is half redressed |
| A fly in the ointment |
| A fool always rushes to the fore |
| A fool and his money are soon parted |
| A fool at forty is a fool indeed |
| A fool may ask more questions in an hour than a wise man can answer in seven years |
| A fool may throw a stone into a well which a hundred wise men cannot pull out |
| A fool's tongue runs before his wit |
| A forced kindness deserves no thanks |
| A foul morn may turn to a fair day |
| A fox is not taken twice in the same snare |
