You are not a man until you have plowed a field.
World is a good teacher, but it charges a huge fee.
With a walking-stick you reach many lands; you reach many more with words.
Who stands by the door of his house is not yet gone away.
To an optimist every weed is a flower; to a pessimist every flower is a weed.
The world is a good teacher, but it charges a huge fee.
The wise man will be cheated only once.
The winter does not leave without a backward glance.
The water is the same on both sides of the boat.
The walking-stick reaches many lands, the word many more.
The old cow forgets that she was once a calf.
The memories of one's youth make for long, long thoughts.
The lazy sweat when they eat and complain of the cold when they work.
The forest will answer you in the way you call to it.
The echo knows all languages.
If a man knew where he would fall, he would spread straw there first.
In heaven you wont hear the mosquitoes.
A married man has many sorrows - an unmarried man has one more.
A widow, like a widower, is a house without a roof.
Age does not give you good sense, it only makes you go slowly.
All that glitters is not gold, nor all that sparkles silver.
Better ice that melts than fire that extinguishes.
Cowardice will not prolong life.
Don't raise your club so high; it will only fall on your head.
Even a small star shines in the dark.
Everyone knows the bear, but the bear knows no one.
