If you watch the wolf too hard, a mouse will bite you on the ankle.
If you tried to solve every problem yourself, you ended by solving none.
If you must mount the gallows, give a jest to the crowd, a coin to the hangman, and make the drop with a smile on your lips.
If you don’t know everything, you must go on with what you do know.
If you can’t hide what you are going to do, do it so everybody thinks you are a fool.
If you ask the lion to protect you from wolves, you have only chosen to end in one belly instead of another.
If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.
If the world is ending, a woman will want time to fix her hair. If the world’s ending, a woman will take time to tell a man something he’s done wrong.
If a sword had memory, it might be grateful to the forge fire, but never fond of it.
I’ve seen men die because they were sure that what should not happen, would not.
I will hate the man you choose because he is not me, and love him if he makes you smile.
