A man with a purple nose may be very temperate in drink, only no one will believe it.
Money makes the blind man see.
We admire our own writings, but other men’s wives.
If you are afraid of being found out, leave it alone.
Bend your neck if the eaves are low.
It’s not the wine that makes a man drunk; it’s the man himself.
A whisper on earth sounds like thunder in heaven.
To get a favor granted is harder than to kill a tiger.
Sweep the snow from your own door.
If there were no error there could be no truth.
