2 _багатство і бідність
abundance, like want, ruins many at the workingman's house hunger looks in but dares not enter a beggar can never be bankrupt a beggar ennobled does not know his kinsmen beggar is jealous of beggar beggars can't be choosers a beggar's purse is bottomless chains of gold are stronger than chains of iron content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor the doorstep of a great house is slippery few rich men own their own property – their property owns them a full purse has many friends full stomachs make empty heads God help the rich, for the poor can beg gold dust blinds all eyes gold is tested by fire, men by gold gold may be bought too dear gold rules the world gold will not buy everything a great fortune is a great slavery a handkerchief is a poor woman's purse hunger breaks stone walls hunger is the best sauce hunger knows no friends a hungry belly has no ears if you haven't silver in your purse, you should have silk on your tongue it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven life and misery begin together a light purse is a heavy purse the more we have, the more we want, the more we want, the less we have much gold, much care much profit, much risk naked we come, naked we go neither beg of him who has been a beggar, nor serve him, who has been a servant old woman's gold is not ugly one day a beggar, the next day a thief a poor man is better than a liar the poor man pays for all poor men's tables are soon set possession is nine points of the law poverty consists in feeling poor poverty is no disgrace, but it is a great inconvenience poverty is no sin poverty is not a shame, but the being ashamed of it is poverty is the mother of all arts poverty parts friends prosperity discovers vice, adversity virtue prosperity makes friends; adversity tries them a rich man never lacks relatives a rich man knows not his friends a rich person ought to have a strong stomach rich men have no faults riches and virtue do not often keep each other company riches serve a wise man but command a fool a rising tide lifts all boats set a beggar on horseback and he will ride to the Devil there is ill talk between a full man and a fasting there is no pride like that of a beggar grown rich there is no virtue that poverty does not destroy a thief passes for a gentleman when stealing has made him rich to be content, look backward on those who possess less than yourself, not forward on those, who possess more when one has a good table, he is always right the weakest goes to the wall wealth and content are not bedfellows wealth is not his that has it, but his who enjoys it wealth makes wit waver when all are poor, it doesn't take much to make a rich man wisdom in a poor man is a diamond set in lead wrinkled purses make wrinkled faces you cannot serve God and MammonEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _багатство і бідність

3 _праця; справа та відпочинок
all lay load on the willing horse all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy all work is noble at the workingman's house, hunger looks in but dares not enter a bad shearer never had a good sickle the best fish are near the bottom the best way to get rid of work is to do it better to be idle than badly employed the busiest men have the most leisure business before pleasure business is to grown men what blocks are to children the cat would eat fish, but would not wet her feet the cobbler should stick to his last every man to his trade everybody's business is nobody's business fools and bairns should never see half-done work a good horse should be seldom spurred grasp all, lose all he that can take rest is greater than he that can take cities he who does not work, neither shall he eat he that would eat the fruit must climb the tree a hired horse never tires if you agree to carry the calf, they'll make you carry the cow if you want a thing well done do it yourself if you would have your business done, go; if not, send in doing we learn it is working that makes a workman Jack of all trades is master in none the labourer is worthy of his hire a man can do no more than he can a man of words and not of deeds is like a garden full of weeds many hands make work light the more boys that help, the less work they do never do things by halves never send a boy to do a man's job practice makes perfect Rome was not built in a day a short horse is soon curried there are tricks in every trade they must hunger in winter that will not work in summer two of a trade never agree what is a workman without his tools? what is worth doing at all is worth doing well what may be done at any time will be done at no time when pleasure is the business of life, it ceases to be pleasure a wise man without work is a bee without honey a woman's work is never done work is not the curse, but drudgery is work is the only capital that never misses dividends work is work if you're paid to do it, and it's pleasure if you pay to be allowed to do it the workman is known by his work you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs you never know what you can do till you tryEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _праця; справа та відпочинок

ambition has no rest contempt will cause spite to drink of her own poison every man has as much vanity as he is deficient in understanding fling away ambition; by that sin fell the angels a man without ambition is like a woman without looks pride and gout are seldom cured throughout pride breakfasted with plenty, dined with poverty, and supped with infamy pride goes before a fall pride in prosperity turn to misery in adversity pride is a luxury a poor man cannot afford pride is at the bottom of all great mistakes put your pride in your pocket scornful dogs will eat dirty puddings there is no pride like the pride of beggar grown rich vanity backbites more than maliceEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _гордість; порожній гонор; честолюбство

6 _влада
the best government is that in which the law speaks instead of the lawyer better to reign in hell, than serve in heaven a crown is no cure for a headache divide and rule dress a monkey as you will, it remains a monkey still everyone speaks well of the bridge which carries him over fish begins to stink at the head the great fish eat up the small he sits not sure that sits too high he that cannot obey cannot command high places have their precipices the higher the monkey climbs, the more he shows his tail if you can't command yourself, you can't command others it is better for a town to be governed by a good man than by good laws it is ill sitting at Rome and striving with the Pope the king can do no wrong kings have long arms a new broom sweeps clean the pleasures of the mighty are the tears of the poor power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God the statesman makes the occasion, but the occasion makes the politician sudden power is apt to be insolent, sudden liberty saucy; that behaves best which has grown gradually that government is best which governs least
