One should be born either a king or a fool, [160]
One starts the game and another bags it, [260]
One starts the hare, another catches it, [130]

One swallow does not make a spring, [61], [143]
One swallow don’t make a summer, [129], [260], [315], [364]

One “Take this” is better than ten “God help you!”, [144]
One “Take this” is better than two “You-shall-haves!”, [39], [63], [314]
