If wishes were horses, beggars might ride
Promise little, but do much
An empty hand is no lure for a hawk
Better to reign in hell, than serve in heaven
Where there's a will, there's a way
A clear conscience laughs at false accusations
Facts are stubborn things
Between the cup and the lip a morsel may slip
If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise
Misfortunes never come alone
Honour and profit lie not in one sack
Every country has its customs
Scornful dogs will eat dirty puddings
4.1 Don't look a gift horse in the mouth
It is a long lane that has no turning
Be slow to promise and quick to perform
Idle folks lack no excuses
What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over
Kill the goose that lays the golden eggs
Zeal without knowledge is a runaway horse
The nearer the bone the sweeter the meat
A great fortune is a great slavery
Fine words butter no parsnips
2.1 Many hands make light work
5.2 Better the devil you know than the devil you don't
Debt is the worst poverty
While the grass grows the horse starves
Old birds are not caught with chaff
