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