The tyrant is only the slave turned inside out

The barking of a dog does not disturb the man on a camel

Do not cease to drink beer, to eat, to intoxicate thyself, to make love, and to celebrate the good days.

Do not rejoice over what has not yet happened

The mouth of a perfectly happy man is filled with beer.

Pride and dignity would belong to women if only men would leave them alone

Put a rope around your neck and many will be happy to drag you along

Because we focused on the snake, we missed the scorpion

Making money selling manure is better than losing money selling musk

Beautiful discourse is rarer than an emerald, yet it can be found among the slave girls at the grindstone.
