One must sometimes hold a candle to the devil, [333]

One must step back to make the better leap, [22]

One must talk soothingly to the dog until one has passed him, [58]

One nail drives in another, [304]

One nail drives out another, [61], [84], [130]

One never gets more than the money’s worth of anything, [42]

One never goes so far as when one don’t know whither one is going, [43]

One never wept but another laughed, [113]

One often has need of a lesser than oneself, [41]

One pair of ears would exhaust a hundred tongues, [130]
