7 _дружба і ворожнеча
the best friends must part better lose a jest than a friend better an open enemy than a false friend between friends all is common beware of enemies reconciled and meat twice boiled a broken friendship may be soldered but will never be sound a brother may not be a friend, but a friend will always be a brother a courageous foe is better than a cowardly friend a dog with a bone knows no friends don't trade old friends for new even reckoning makes long friends a faithful friend is better than gold a faithful friend is the medicine of life a friend in need is a friend indeed a friend in the market is better than money in the purse a friend married is a friend lost a friend to all is a friend to none a friend's envy is worse than an enemy's hatred friends are thieves of time friends are to be preferred to relatives friends may meet, but mountains never greet friends tie their purses with spider's thread friendship cannot stand always on one side friendship is love without wings friendship is not to be bought at a fair friendship often ends in love, but love in friendship never geese with geese and women with women gifts from enemies are dangerous God defend me from my friends; from my enemies I can defend myself God gives relatives; thank God we can choose our friends a good friend is a great treasure a good friend is my nearest relative have no friends not equal to yourself a hedge between keeps friendship green I cannot be your friend and your flatterer, too it is better to have one friend of great value than many friends of little value let not the grass grow on the path of friendship lend your money and lose your friend long absence changes friends a long spell of illness is apt to point out your best friends many acquaintances but few friends never trust a friend who deserts you in a pinch no matter what else you have, you are poor if you lack friends old friends and old wine are best prosperity makes friends; adversity tries them short acquaintance brings repentance speak well of your friends; of your enemies say nothing there is no better mirror than an old friend there is no little enemy a true friend is one who knows all your faults and loves you still true friendship is a plant of slow growth trust not a new friend nor an old enemy two is company, but three is none union is strength who seeks a faultless friend stays friendless a wise enemy is better than a foolish friend you cannot use your friends and have them tooEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _дружба і ворожнеча

8 _сила та слабкість; велике та мале
all great minds run in the same channel better to be a big toad in a small puddle than a small toad in a big puddle burn not your house to rid of the mouse conceit is nature's gift to small men to make up for that which they don't have every great man is unique every oak has been an acorn for want of a nail the shoe was lost; for want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for want of a horse the man was lost grain by grain, and the hen fills her belly a great ship asks deep waters great men are not always wise the greatest crabs be not all the best heavy burdens kill little people, but they make great ones he that can take rest is greater than he that can take cities an inch is as good as an ell the Iamb who bites a wolf never bites again little boats should stay close to shore little minds are tamed and subdued by misfortune, but great minds rise above it a little body often harbours a great soul little things worry little minds many a little makes a mickle a mouse may help a lion none thinks the great unhappy oaks may fall when reeds stand the storm one man's weakness is another man's chance one swallow does not make a summer a small leak will sink a great ship there are no small steps in great affairs there is safety in numbers trifles lead to serious matters trifles make perfection, but perfection is no trifle union is strength the weakest goes to the wallEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _сила та слабкість; велике та мале
