When deeds speak, words are nothing.
Wherever man goes to dwell his character goes with him.
Whatever accomplishment you boast of in the world, there is someone better than you.
When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you.
Do not look where you fell, but where you slipped.
Only a fool tests the depth of the water with both feet.
Until the lions have their historians, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the hunter.
Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors.
A wise man never knows all, only fools know everything
