He knows enough who knows how to live and keep his own counsel, [5]

He knows it as well as his Pater-noster, [255]

He knows the water best who has waded through it, [374]

He knows well where the thorn pricks him, [95]

He knows where the devil carries his tail, [96], [124]

He laughs at scars who never felt a wound, [139]

He laughs well (or best) who laughs longest, [55], [124] (See He who laughs)

He lays his eggs beside his nest, [327]

He lies like a tooth-drawer, [23]
