the devil lurks behind the cross
the dog that fetches will carry
the dog that trots about finds a bone
the dogs bark, but caravan goes on
the early bird catches the worm
the evils we bring on ourselves are hardest to bear
the falling out of lovers is the renewing of love
the fox is not taken twice in the same snare
the fox may grow grey but never good
the game is not worth the candle
the gods send nuts to those who have no teeth
the goose hangs high
the highest tree has the greatest fall
the last straw breaks the camel's back
the mountain has brought forth a mouse
the mouse lordships where a cat is not
the older the goose the harden to pluck
the pigs ran through it
the pitcher goes often to the well but is broken at last
the pot calls the kettle black
the rotten apple injures its neighbours
the scalded cat (dog) fears cold water
the shoemaker's wife is the worst shod; the tailor's wife is the worst clad; the shoemaker’s son always goes barefoot
the truth will out; /murder will out; what is done by night appears by day; you cannot hide an eel in a sack
the sleeping fox catches no poultry
the smallest axe may fell the hugest oak
the whole tree or not a cherry on it
the wolf may change his coat, but not his disposition
there are as good fish in the sea as ever came out of it
there are more ways of killing a dog than by hanging
there are more ways than one to kill a cat
