Give neither counsel nor salt till you are asked for it.

Honesty and kindness are the best riches.

Praise no man till he is dead.

Good fame is better than a good face.

When I lent, I had a friend; but when I asked, he was unkind.

An idle youth, a needy age.

He who trusteth not is not deceived.

Eident youth makes easy age.

Nothing is lost for asking.

He is paid back in his own coin.
