Proverbs

A friend in need is a friend indeed
A friend is never known till needed
A friend to all is a friend to none
A friend's frown is better than a foe's smile
A good anvil does not fear the hammer
A good beginning is half the battle
A good beginning makes a good ending
A good deed is never lost
A good dog deserves a good bone
A good example is the best sermon
A good face is a letter of recommendation
A good Jack makes a good Jill
A good marksman may miss
A good name is better than riches
A good name is sooner lost than won
A good name keeps its lustre in the dark
A good wife makes a good husband
A great dowry is a bed full of brambles
A great fortune is a great slavery
A great ship asks deep waters
A guilty conscience needs no accuser
A hard nut to crack
A heavy purse makes a light heart
A hedge between keeps friendship green
A honey tongue, a heart of gall
A hungry belly has no ears
A hungry man is an angry man
A Jack of all trades is master of none
A Joke never gains an enemy but often loses a friend
A lawyer never goes to law himself
A lazy sheep thinks its wool heavy
A liar is not believed when he speaks the truth
A lie begets a lie
A light purse is a heavy curse
A light purse makes a heavy heart
A little body often harbours a great soul
A little fire is quickly trodden out
A man can die but once
A man can do no more than he can
A man is known by the company he keeps
