Far-fetched and dear-bought is good for ladies.

A good beginning makes a good ending.

It is merry in hall when beards wag all.

A short horse is soon curried.

Between two stools one falls to the ground.

He who sups with the Devil should have a long spoon.

After a storm comes a calm.

A fool may give a wise man counsel.

Light come, light go.

Look before you leap.

So many men, so many opinions.

Of two evils choose the less.

Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight; red sky in the morning, shepherd’s warning.

East to live, not live to eat.

God never sends mouths but He sends meat.

Nothing venture, nothing have.

Manners maketh man.

Stolen waters are sweet.

An old poacher makes the best gamekeeper.

The sun loses nothing by shining into a puddle.

Fair and softly goes far in a day.

Haste makes waste.

Three things are not to be trusted; a cow’s horn, a dog’s tooth, and a horse’s hoof.
