MANKIND


A healthy man is a successful man.
Bear wealth, poverty will bear itself.
Fortune is a woman; if you neglect her today do not expect to regain her tomorrow.
Friends are lost by calling often and calling seldom.
He that will get the better of a fox must rise early.
He who is near the church is often far from God.
He who survives will see the outcome.
He would sink a ship freighted with crucifixes.
Ingratitude is a kind of weakness, clever men are not ungrateful.
Learning is there for every man.
Man is not man, but a wolf to those he does not know.
Marriage is a lottery.
Men count up the faults of those who keep them waiting.
The clever wife makes her husband an apron.
The poor man commands respect; the beggar must always excite anger.
The surest way to remain poor is to be an honest man.
There is no perfect marriage, for there are no perfect men.
Young men forgive, old men never.
