As soon as a man is born, he
begins to die
|
Death is the destiny of every man
|
|
Ask no questions and hear no lies
|
Do not force a person into telling
you a lie by forcing him to talk about something he does not want to talk
about
|
|
Avoid evil and it will avoid thee
|
Stay out of trouble, and trouble
will not follow you
|
|
Bad news travels fast
|
People seem to hear bad news very
fast
|
|
Bad is never good until worse
happens
|
A bad situation you have been
complaining about will suddenly seem a blessing when something worse happens
|
|
Be careful what you wish for, you
might just get it
|
What you wish for may not really
be what is good for you
|
|
Beauty is only skin-deep
|
Looks are not the most important
thing about a person
|
|
Behind every successful man is a
woman
|
A man's strongest and most loyal
supporters are usually his mother and/or his wife
|
|
Better a mouse in the pot than no
meat at all
|
To have something, no matter how
little or poor in quality, is better than to have nothing at all
|
|
Do as I saw, and not as I do
|
Do something as you have seen it
done although it may be different from your own way of doing it
|
|
Doctors make the worst patients
|
It is difficult advising people on
matters they are supposed to be experts on because they believe they know
better
|
|
Don't go near the water until you
learn how to swim
|
Do not try to do something before
you have learnt how to do it or before you are ready for it
|
|
Don't mend what isn't broken
|
Do not change things that are
working fine as they are
|
|
Don't shut the barn door after the
horse is gone
|
prepare for emergencies and
eventualities before they happen
|
|
Don't teach your grandmother how
to suck eggs
|
Do not be presumptuous and teach
an experienced person how things should be done
|
Better be safe than sorry
|
It is wise to take precautions
rather than be upset that you did not prepare for an eventuality after
something has happened
|
|
Better the devil you know than the
devil you don't know
|
the problems you are facing at
present may not be as bad as those in the place you are planning to move to
|
|
Better to be alone than in bad
company
|
It is better to be by yourself
than to be with people who are a bad influence
|
|
Better to die with honor than live
with shame
|
It is more honorable to do the
right thing even if you will be punished or have to die for it than to live
as a coward or a liar
|
|
Bitter pills may have blessed
effects
|
Something may be unpleasant or
painful, but it can help you in the long run
