A little thing in hand is worth more than a great thing in prospect
A crust eaten in peace is better than a banquet partaken in anxiety
He that is neither one thing nor the other has no friends
If you allow men to use you for your own purposes, they will use you for theirs
Better beans and bacon in peace than cakes and ale in fear
You will only injure yourself if you take notice of despicable enemies
Better humble security than gilded danger
Only cowards insult dying majesty
You cannot escape your fate
Little by little does the trick
United we stand, divided we fall
Destroy the seed of evil, or it will grow up to your ruin
It is easy to be brave from a safe distance
Gratitude is the sign of noble souls
One bad turn deserves another
When you are in a man's power you must do as he bids you
Vices are their own punishment
Enemies' promises were made to be broken
Train up a child in the way he should go
Never soar aloft on an enemy's pinions
People often grudge others what they cannot enjoy themselves
Example is the best precept
We can easily represent things as we wish them to be
Never trust the advice of a man in difficulties
