6. A bad hair cut is two people's shame.A bad horse eats as much as a good one.A bad tree does not yield good apples.A barren sow is never kind to pigs.A bird may be ever so small, it always seeks a nest of its own.A bird never flew on one wing.A blind pigeon may sometimes find a grain of wheat.A bold attempt is half success.A burnt child fears the fire, and a bitten child fears a dog.A child must creep until it learns to walk.A child's back must be bent early.

7. Before a man learns to hang he is half dead.Better a little furniture than an empty house.Better a little in peace and with right, than much with anxiety and strife.Better a poor horse than an empty stall.Better a salt herring on your own table, than a fresh pike on another man's.Better an open enemy than a false friend.Better ask twice than lose your way once.Better half a loaf than none at all.Better in an old carriage than in a new ship.

8. He that does not save pennies, will never have pounds.He that hides is no better than he that steals.He that inquires much, learns much.He that is once at sea, must either sail or sink.He that keeps out of harm's way will gather goodly riches.

9. It needs but slight provocation to make the wolf devour the lamb.It takes a good many mice to kill a cat."It will come back," said the man, when he gave his sow pork.Jest with your equals.Keep not two tongues in one mouth.Keep to the little ones, and the big ones will not bite you.Keep your mouth, and keep your friend.Keep your nose out of another's mess.Keep your nose to the grindstone.
