Better poor with honour than rich with shame, [300]
Better reap two days too soon than one too late, [332]
Better repair the gutter than the whole house, [283]
Better return half way than lose yourself, [301]
Better ride a good horse for a year, than an ass all your life, [301]
Better slip with the foot than with the tongue, [97]
Better something on the arm than all in the stomach, [351]
Better something than nothing at all, [136]
Better spare at the brim than at the bottom, [349]
