Proverbs
And the whole pie and the dog full.
Wine and children speak the truth.
Learn a craft and quit it, and when you get poor, use it to earn a living
A hungry bear does not dance.
Whoever gets burnt by the (hot) milk blows on the (cool) yogurt.
Someone who gets in chicken feed is eaten by the chickens.
He who's hungry dreams of bread-loaves.
When the month has no "R" put water in your wine.
When you hear of many cherries, hold a small basket.
The big fish eats the little one.
The apple will fall under the apple-tree.
The children of the wise cook prepare the meal before they get hungry.
Bean by bean, the sack gets full.
You never miss a slice from a cut loaf.
Like a fish out of water.
A hungry man is an angry man.
He who has once burnt his mouth always blows his soup.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Hygiene is two thirds of health.
Half a loaf is better than none.
A spoon does not know the taste of soup, nor a learned fool the taste of
wisdom.
Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and
he'll eat forever.
