Be not too presumptuously sure in any business; for things of this world depend on such a train of unseen chances that if it were in man's hands to set the tables, still he would not be certain to win the game.
When the Foxe preacheth, beware geese.
Good horses make short miles.
He that marries late, marries ill.
Trust no friend with that you need fear him if he were your enemy.
The life of man is a winter way.
