Les Remèdes à lamour (French Edition)
Better die a beggar, than live a beggar. Better at the latter end of a feast, than the beginning of a fray. Mieux vaut arriver sur la fin d'un repas, qu'au commencement d'un combat. Better belly burst, than good drink lost. Better to commend the virtue of an enemy, than flatter the vice of a friend Mieux vaut louer les vertus d'un ennemi, que flatter les vices d'un ami.
Burn not thy fingers to snuff another man's candle. Children, when little, make parents fools. When great, mad Petits enfants dont on raffole. Confession of a fault, is half amended. Desperate diseases require desperate remedies. Do not kill the goose that lays the golden egg Il ne faut pas tuer la poule aux oeufs d'or. Dry bargains are seldom successful. Early to go to bed, and early to rise, make a man wealthy and wise.
Every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost Sauve qui peut Every penny counts Un sou est un sou.
Fools make feast, and wise man eat them Le sot fait le festin, et l'habile le mange. Fresh fish and new-come guests, smell when they are three days old. Give a dog a bad name and hang him. Qui veut noyer son chien l'accuse d'avoir la rage. Got strikes with the left hand, and strokes with the right. Dieu frappe de la main gauche, et caresse de la droite. He that won't be consoled, can't be helped. Qui ne veut de conseil, peut bien se passer d'aide. He that seeks other to beguile, is often overtaken in his wile. He that goes a borrowing, goes a sorrowing. He who's afraid of leaves, must not come into a wood Qui a peur des feuilles, n'aille pas au bois.
In the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed is king Au royaume des aveugles, les borgnes sont rois. In too much discourse, truth is lost. Love is blind L'amour est aveugle Love laughs at locksmiths L'amour force toutes les serrures Lucky at cards, unlucky in love Heureux au jeu, malheureux en amour. Man does what he can, but God what he will. L'homme fait ce qu'il peut, et Dieu, ce qu'il veut.
Never praise a ford, till you get over. Never seek that by foul means, which you may have by fair. No man is a fool always, every one some times. Nul qui soit fou toujours, nul qui ne le soit parfois. Nought but a fool I will hint call, that writes his name upon a wall. On ne voit sur les murailles, que le nom de la canaille Si tu loges le sot chez toi, il laissera son nom sur les murs.
One man's meat is another man's poison Le bonheur des uns fait le malheur des autres. Save a thief from the gallows, and he will cut your throat. Sauve le voleur de la potence, et il te coupera la gorge. Shameless craving must have a shameful nay. Speak of the devil and he's sure to appear Quand on parle du loup, on voit sa queue. Stretch your arm no farther than your sleeve. Tell me will whom thou goest, and I'll tell what thou doest.
Dis-moi avec qui tu vas, et je te dirai ce que tu feras. The bad workman blames his tools Les mauvais ouvriers ont toujours de mauvais outils. The covetous man, like a dog in a wheel, Roast meat for others.
American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2015
L'avare, comme le chien de cuisine, Tourne la broche pour autrui. The eye of the master does more than both his hands. Though' the fox runs, the chicken has wings. Si le renard court, le poulet a des ailes.

What is sauce for the goose, is sauce for the gander. Sauce bonne pour l'oie, est bonne pour le jars. When good cheer is lacking, friends will be packing. When the fox preaches, beware of your geese. When they give a cow, run and fetch a haller. Si l'on te donne une vache, cours-y vite avec une corde. Where bees are, there will be honey. While the grass grows, the steer starves.
You can't have your cake and eat it.

Bernard de Bonnard , "Le Silence," L'Almanach des Muses The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool. William Shakespeare , As You Like It , Act v, Scene i Can any thing in this world be more foolish than to think that all this rare fabric of heaven and earth can come by chance, when all the skill of art is not able to make an oyster! What can be more foolish than to think that all this rare fabric of heaven and earth could come by chance, when all the skill of art is not able to make an oyster!
You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; in just the same way, you learn to love by loving. Son amour pour Dieu Variant of sourced quotation:
