Appraisement
Measure for measure. /Give tit for tat.
A miss is as good as a mile. /A little too late is much too late.
Have an eye to the main chance.
The eye is the mirror of the soul.
Call no man great before he is dead.
There are two sides to every story.
Better be alone than in bad company.
Build castles in the air. /Show him an egg, and instantly the whole air is full of feathers.
There is life in a mussel, though it be little.
Wise men learn by other men’s mistakes.
All roads lead to Rome.
The worth of a thing is best known by the want of it.
Old bees yield no honey. /The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
What millions died that Caesar might be great.
Every Jack has his Jill.
