| Dutch Proverb - F
Far fetched and dear bought is meat for ladies.First a turnip, then a sheep; next a cow, and then the gallows.Folly hath eagle's wings, but the eyes of an owl.Fools are free all the world over.Fools ask what's o'clock, but wise men know their time.For a flying enemy make a silver bridge.For great evils strong remedies.From a spark the house is burnt.From little things men go on to great.From small beginning come great things.From the boat we get to the ship.From the father comes honour, from the mother comfort.From trivial things great contests oft arise.Froth is no beer.Full bottles and glasses make swearers and asses. |
