| Danish Proverb - F
"Fie upon thee, how black thou art!" said the kettle to the saucepan.Father and mother are kind, but God is kinder.Faults are thick where love is thin.Favour and gifts disturb justice.Few have luck, all have death.Few women turn grey because their husband dies.Fine linen often conceals scabby skin.Fine words without deeds go not far.Fire and straw soon make a flame.Fire and water are good servants but bad masters.Fish and guests smell at three days old.Fish and guests stink after three days.Fish and guests stink after three days.Flattery is sweet food for those who can swallow it.Flowers are the pledges of fruit.Follow the customs, or fly the country.For a good dinner and a gentle wife you can afford to wait.From children you must expect childish acts.From praise, as from a shadow, a man is neither bigger nor smaller. |
