appetite comes with eating appetite furnishes the best sauce better a good dinner than a fine coat eat at pleasure, drink by measure eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow you will die eating and scratching wants but a beginning gluttony kills more than the sword he that steals the old man's supper does him no wrong hunger breaks stone walls hunger is the best sauce hunger knows no friends a hungry belly has no ears it's better a belly burst than good food waste lazy folks' stomachs don't get tired lightest suppers make long lives live not to eat, but eat to live men are conservative after dinner new dishes beget new appetites slow at meat, slow at work stuff today and starve tomorrow suppers kill more than the greatest doctors can core the table robs more than the thief there are more days than sausages there is ill talk between a full man and a fasting the way to a man's heart is through his stomach we never repent of having eaten or drunk too little who eats with heart is a worker smart you are what you eat you dig your grave with your own fork -

always tell your doctor and your lawyer the truth apothecaries would not sugar their pills unless they were bitter better suffer for truth than prosper by falsehood children and fools speak the truth half the truth is often a whole lie it is better to be right than in the majority mad folks and proverbs reveal many truths many a truth is spoken is jest murder will out nothing stings like the truth some people would rather be right than pleasant tell the truth all the time and you won't have to remember what you said tell the truth and shame the Devil those who are right need not talk loudly to withhold truth is to bury gold truth and roses have thorns about them truth fears nothing but concealment truth is heavy; therefore few wear it truth is the daughter of time truth is stranger than fiction truth lies at the bottom of a well truth never grows old the truth always pays the truth shall make you free what everybody says must be true what is new cannot be true
