The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse
Better beans and bacon in peace than cakes and ale in fear.
Better beans and bacon in peace than cakes and ale in fear.
A liar will not be believed, even when he speaks the truth.
Do not count your chickens before they are hatched.
Slow and steady wins the race.
Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.
We often give our enemies the means for our own destruction.
