A good friend will fit you like ring to finger.
Join with good men and you will be one of them.
Proverbs in conversation are torches in darkness.
For the ugly vice of begging, there's the virtue of not giving.
A mother has little love for a son who did not give her pain.
Treat the lesser as you would have the greater treat you.
There is nothing lost by civility.
For a new sin, a new penance.
The man to whom god gives no children, the devil gives nieces and nephews.
Blood is inherited; character is earned.
He who would be a redeemer ends up crucified.
There is nothing like leather.
He who abandons his family, god forsakes him.
There is nothing hidden between Heaven and Earth.
