it's when it's small that the cucumber gets twisted merely talking about a difficulty will not unravel it there is no accounting for taste an ounce of fortitude is worth a pound of brains nobody can fully understand another person's need when something seems too good to be true usually it is if fortune thunders beware of being snowed under in a hundred years we will be dead anyway so what if you humiliate yourself the pillow is a good counselor as the priests sings so the congregation responds judge not the umpire at first sight delay is preferable to ‘‘in no way’’ much bran and little feast the only gratis cheese is in the mouse trap there is no rule without an immunity don't suppose anyone to change his ways by telling him off pay no attention to what people shout about you the remedy is often worse than the complaint
