| Danish Proverb - G
Gifts make friendship lasting.Gifts should be handed, not thrown.Give a pig when it grunts, and a child when it cries, and you will have a fine pig, and a bad child.Give a rogue an inch, and he will take an ell.Give to a pig when it grunts and a child when it cries , and you will have a fine pig and a bad child.Give your wife the short knife, and keep the long one for yourself.God comes at last, when we think he is farthest off.God gives all birds their food but does not drop it into their nests.God gives every bird its food, but does not throw it into the nest.God gives little folks small gifts.God gives the will, necessity gives the law.God help the sheep when the wolf is judge.God never sends mouths but he sends meat.God sends men cold according to their clothes.Gold is gold, though it be in a rogue's purse.Gold is proved in the fire, friendship in need.Good corn is not reaped from a bad field.Good counsel is no better than bad counsel, if it be not taken in time.Good counsel will not rot, if it be got in dry.Good never comes too often.Govern a horse with a bit, and a shrew with a stick.Great lords have long hands, but they do not reach to heaven.Great lords will have much, and poor folk can give but little.Grey hairs are death's blossoms. |
