Proverbs

In the end things will mend
In the evening one may praise the day
Iron hand (fist) in a velvet glove
It is a good horse that never stumbles
It is a long lane that has no turning
It is a poor mouse that has only one hole
It is a silly fish, that is caught twice with the same bait
It is an ill bird that fouls its own nest
It is an ill wind that blows nobody good
It is easy to swim if another hoids up your chin (head)
It is enough to make a cat laugh
It is good fishing in troubled waters
It is never too late to learn
It is no use crying over spilt milk
It is the first step that costs
It never rains but it pours
It takes all sorts to make a world
It's as broad as it's long
It's no use pumping a dry well
It's one thing to flourish and another to fight
Jackdaw in peacock's feathers
Jest with an ass and he will flap you in the face with his tail
Judge not of men and things at first sight
Just as the twig is bent, the tree is inclined
Keep a thing seven years and you will find a use for it
Keep your mouth shut and your ears open
Keep your mouth shut and your eyes open
Last, but not least
Laws catch flies, but let hornets go free
Learn to creep before you leap
Learn to say before you sing
Learn wisdom by the follies of others
Least said, soonest mended
Leaves without figs
Let bygones be bygones
Let every man praise the bridge he goes over
Let sleeping dogs lie
Let well (enough) alone
Liars need good memories
Lies have short legs
