It is not a secret if it is known by three people.
What I'm afraid to hear I'd better say first myself.
A kind word never broke anyone's mouth.
Eaten bread is forgotten.
You never miss the water till the well has run dry.
Absence increases sorrow.
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.
A light heart lives long.
When the belly is full, the bones like to stretch.
Good sense is as important as food.
The wine is sweet, the paying bitter.
What butter and whiskey will not cure, there's no cure for.
Good as drink is, it ends in thirst.
If you lie down with dogs, you'll rise with fleas.
Talk of the devil, and he will appear.
Constant company wears out its welcome.
Burning embers are easily kindled.
Poverty parts good company.
No one is ever poor who has the sight of his eyes and the use of his feet.
The thief is no danger to the beggar.
When your hand is in the dog's mouth, withdraw it gently.
Better be sure than sorry.
God is good, but never dance in a small boat.
The grace of God is found between the saddle and the ground.
God's help is nearer than the door.
