- 1. A loud boast but a small deed
2 Better late than never
3 Listen to the noise of the river and you will catch a trout
4 Luck is better than early rising
5 Fight is better than loneliness
6 The world will never make a racehorse of an ass
7 Hunger is good sauce
8. Bought sence is the best sence.
9 You cannot put a wise head on young shoulders
10 Blood is thicker than water.
11 Youth must have it's fling
12 Rome was not built in a day
13 Think twice before you act once.
