A joy that's shared is a joy made double.
Children should be seen and not heard.
If February give much snow A fine Summer it doth foreshow.
When the cat's away the mice will play.
Time trieth truth.
The mills of the gods grind slowly but they grind exceedingly fine.
He is lifeless that is faultless.
Misery loves company.
Hope for the best but prepare for the worst.
You may lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
He who despises his own life is soon master of another's.
