A soft answer turns away wrath

A small leak will sink a great ship

A silent fool is counted wise

A shy cat makes a proud mouse

A round peg in a square hole

A rolling stone gathers no moss

A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder

A penny soul never came to twopence

A penny saved is a penny gained

A nod from a lord is a breakfast for a fool

A new broom sweeps clean

A miserly father makes a prodigal son

A miserly father makes a prodigal son

A man of words and not of deeds is like a garden full of weeds

A man is known by the company he keeps

A man can do no more than he can

A man can die but once

A little fire is quickly trodden out

A little body often harbours a great soul

A light purse makes a heavy heart

A light purse is a heavy curse

A lie begets a lie

A liar is not believed when he speaks the truth

A lazy sheep thinks its wool heavy

A lawyer never goes to law himself
