Men are like bears, the uglier they are, the more gorgeous they are. You are master over what you hush, and slave to what you speak… The best thing God did was to make one day follow another. When you talk about the sun, you will see her beams. That which does not kill, makes you fat… Appearances can be deceiving. There is no chaos that good cannot come from After a storm comes a calm. Lying and eating fish, one must be very careful… The keeper of the orchard’s dog, that neither eats, nor will let anyone eat Curiosity killed the cat.
