Of this world each man has as much as he takes, [92]
Of three things the devil makes a salad: lawyers’ tongues, notaries’ fingers, and a third that shall be nameless, [92]

Of what does not concern you say nothing, good or bad, [91]
Of what use is it that the cow gives plenty of milk, if she upsets the pail, [175]
Of your wife and your tried friend believe nothing but what you know for certain, [213]

Offer a clown your finger, and he’ll take your fist, [345] (See Give a clown)
