3 _молодість і старість
age gives good advice when it is no longer able to give bad example at 20 years of age the will reigns, at 30 the wit, at 40 the judgment every age wants its playthings the feet are slow when the head wears snow few persons know how to be old growing old is no more than a bad habit which a busy man has no time to form it will be a forward cock that crows in the shell a man is as old as he feels, and a woman as old as she looks a man is as old as his arteries a man's a fool till he's 40 a man whose youth has no follies will in his maturity have no power old birds are not to be caught with chaff an old ass is never good an old dog will learn no new tricks an old man in a house is a good thing an old young man will be a young old man once a man and twice a child no man is so old, but thinks he may yet live another year wanton kittens make sober cats the way never to grow old and grey-headed is to die young when we are out of sympathy with the youth, our work in the world is over years know more than looks you cannot put an old head on young shoulders you cannot shift an old tree without it dying young angel, old devil; young devil, old angel young courage and old caution are a strong pair young heads are giddy and young hearts are warm a young man idle, an old man needy youth and age can never agree youth comes but once in a lifetime youth is a blunder, manhood a struggle, old age a regret youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind youth supplies us with colors, age with canvasEnglish-Ukrainian dictionary of proverbs > _молодість і старість

4 _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
