A dead man is mourned seven days a fool, his whole lifetime.
If you don't want anyone to find out, don't do it.
Never do tomorrow what you can do today. Procrastination is the thief of time.
The gatekeepers are worse than the directors.
When an old man dies, a library burns to the ground.
Always leave a little room for a mistake.
The go-between wears out a thousand sandals.
A man who continually laments is not heeded.
If you do not step on the dog's tail, he will not bite you.
Never speak ill of the dead.
