Never look for birds of this year in the nests of the last.

Sleep is the best cure for waking troubles.

When God sends the dawn, he sends it for all.

Cunning cheats itself wholly, and other people partially.

The wounds received in battle bestow honour, they do not take it away.

Everything disturbs an absent lover.

Where envy reigns virtue can't exist, and generosity doesn't go with meanness.

To be good to the vile is to throw water into the sea.

Until death, it is all life.

By the streets of 'by and by,' one arrives at the house of 'never'.

Seek for good, but expect evil.

Facts are the enemy of truth.

There were no embraces because where there is great love there is often little display of it.

A stout heart breaks bad luck.

Be slow of tongue and quick of eye.

Give the devil his due.

Time ripens all things; no man is born wise.

The wicked are always ungrateful.

The road to the inn is much better than the stay.
