| Health is not valued till sickness comes |
| His money burns a hole in his pocket |
| Honesty is the best policy |
| Honey is not for the ass's mouth |
| Honey is sweet, but the bee stings |
| Honour and profit lie not in one sack |
| Honours change manners |
| Hope is a good breakfast, but a bad supper |
| Hope is the poor man's bread |
| Hunger breaks stone walls |
| Hunger finds no fault with cookery |
| Hunger is the best sauce |
| Hungry bellies have no ears |
| Idle folks lack no excuses |
| Idleness is the mother of all evil |
| Idleness rusts the mind |
| If an ass (donkey) bray at you, don't bray at him |
| If ifs and ans were pots and pans |
| If my aunt had been a man, she'd have been my uncle |
| If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch |
| If the sky falls, we shall catch larks |
| If there were no clouds, we should not enjoy the sun |
| If things were to be done twice all would be wise |
| If we can't as we would, we must do as we can |
| If wishes were horses, beggars might ride |
| If you agree to carry the calf, they'll make you carry the cow |
| If you cannot bite, never show your teeth |
| If you cannot have the best, make the best of what you have |
| If you dance you must pay the fiddler |
| If you laugh before breakfast you'll cry before supper |
| If you run after two hares, you will catch neither |
| If you sell the cow, you sell her milk too |
| If you throw mud enough, some of it will stick |
| If you try to please all you will please none |
| If you want a thing well done, do it yourself |
| Ill-gotten gains never prosper |
| Ill-gotten, ill-spent |
| In every beginning think of the end |
| In for a penny, in for a pound |
| In the country of the blind one-eyed man is a king |
