| Italian Proverb - P
Paper does not blush.Patience! said the wolf to the ass.Peel a fig for your friend, a peach for your enemy.Plenty makes daintiness.Plenty of words when the cause is lost.Pluck the magpie, and don't make her scream.Pluck the rose and leave the thorns.Poison quells poison.Poor men do penance for rich men's sins.Poor men's money and cowards' weapons are often flourished.Poverty has no kin.Pride went out on horseback, and returned on foot.Priests, friars, nuns, and chickens never have enough.Princes have long arms.Proverbs bear age, and he who would do well may view himself in them as in a looking glass.Public money is like holy water, every one helps himself to it.Public money is like holy water; everyone helps himself. |
