Fire, if neglected, will soon gain strength.
Being, be bold and venture to be wise.
The cask will long retain the flavour of the wine with which it was first seasoned.
Pale death knocks with impartial foot at poor men's hovels and king's palaces.
Mountains will go into labour, and a silly little mouse will be born.
Those who want much, are always much in need; happy the man to whom God gives with a sparing hand what is sufficient for his wants.
