Empty heads are very fond of long titles
Drinking a little too much is drinking a great deal too much
If you don't light fires, smoke won't get in your eyes
If you put out another's candle, you also will be in the dark
Whoever invented work must not have had anything to do
No man can do nothing and no man can do everything.
The eyes believe themselves; the ears believe other people
A flatterer has water in one hand and fire in the other
When you sweep the stairs, you start at the top
You have to take life as it happens, but you should try to make it happen the way you want to take it
