It is safest sailing within reach of the shore, [301]
It is the bait that lures, not the fisherman or the rod, [206], [230]
It is the master-wheel that makes the mill go round, [11]
It is the nature of the greyhound to carry a long tail, [274]
It is the old cow’s notion that she never was a calf, [21]
It is the petty expenses that empty the purse, [108]
It is the raised stick that makes the dog obey, [375]
It is the tone that makes the music, [11]
It is time enough to take off your hat when you see the man, [362]
It is too late for the bird to scream when it is caught, [60]
