44 A good run is better, than a bad stand
45 When the cat is out, the mouse is dancing
46 The life of an old shoe, is to polish it.
47 Listen to the noise of the river, and you will catch fish.
48 The person that has luck in the morning, has luck in the evening.
49 The old dog for the hard road, and the pup for the puddle.
50 Look before you leap.
51 The word that once escapes the tongue, can not be recalled.
52 Dont cry "Halloa," until you are out of the wood.
53 Speak the truth, and shame the devil.
54 The world is for him, who has patience.
55 Soft words, are hard arguments.
