A man is often a bad adviser to himself and a good adviser to another. There are finer fish in the sea than have ever been caught. That which is nearest a woman’s heart is the first to come out. Age is Honorable and youth is noble. A person’s heart is in his feet. When you are right no one remembers; when you are wrong no one forgets. When the apple is ripe it will fall. If you want an audience start a fight. If you want to be criticised, marry. Nature breaks through the eyes of the cat. Even a small thorn causes festering. A questioning man is halfway to being wise. When a twig grows hard it is difficult to twist it.
