A man who has nothing can whistle in a robber's face.

When a man's life is at stake no delay is too long. [Lat., Nulla unquam de morte cunctatio longa est.]

Every crime will bring remorse to the man who committed it

The gods alone know, what kind of wife a man will have.

There are many things which may not be uttered by men in threadbare coats.

The man whose purse is empty can cheerfully sing before the robber.

The wise man sets bounds even to his innocent desires.
