| Sometimes the best gain is to lose. |
| The best mirror is an old friend. |
| Love and a cough cannot be hid. |
| Skill and confidence are an unconquered army. |
| He who cannot forgive breaks the bridge over which he himself must pass. |
| Hope is the poor man's bread. |
| You must lose a fly to catch a trout. |
| Every mile is two in winter. |
| Woe be to him that reads but one book. |
| Living well is the best revenge. |
| Go not for every grief to the physician, nor for every quarrel to the lawyer, nor for every thirst to the pot. |
