Proverbs Page 10

A man with a loud laugh makes truth itself seem folly Truth is great and will win out
Even the truth may be bitter
There are two tellings to every story
Drunkenness and anger, 'tis said tell the truth
What I'm afraid to hear I'd better say first myself
Truth speaks even though the tongue were dead
You can keep away from the rogue, but you cannot keep yourself safe from the liar.
Truth stands when everything else falls
It is no shame to tell the truth
Tell the truth and shame the devil
The well-filled belly has little understanding of the empty
'Tis afterwards that everything is understood
It's a bad hound that's not worth the whistling
He knows how many grains to a bushel of wheat
He knows the price of everything and the value of nothing
He couldn't drag a herring off the coals
It's just a wisp in place of a brush
One pair of good soles is worth two pairs of upper leathers
Without pressing too little or too hard, hold tight the reins for he's a fool who would not get value from a borrowed horse
It's not worth a couckoo-spit
Better an idle house than a bad tenant
Pity him who makes his opinions a certainty
he thinks that he himself is the very stone that was hurled at the castle
He dotes on his midden and thinks it the moon
That's a spoon ye'll sup sorrow with yet
Wilful waste makes woeful want
A shamefaced man seldom acquires wealth
The money-maker (profiteer) is never tired
