from the sublime to the ridiculous is only a step a good reputation is more valuable than money good wits jump great actions speak great minds great men are not always wise great souls suffer in silence a great ship asks deep waters the great man is he who does not lose his child's heart honors change manners it's amazing how much good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit little things amuse little minds a live soldier is better than a dead hero mean men admire wealth, great men seek true glory no flowery road leads to glory no really great man thought himself so none thinks the great unhappy popularity is glory's small change there are no small steps in great affairs a truly great man will neither trample on a worm nor sneak to an emperor what people say behind your back is your standing in the community when glory comes, memory departs a wounded reputation is seldom curedEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _слава; велич; достойність
