Thematic Index
absence
ABSENCE makes the heart grow fonder
he who is ABSENT is always in the wrong
the BEST of friends must part
BLUE are the hills that are far away
DISTANCE lends enchantment to the view
OUT of sight, out of mind
abuse, verbal see malice; slander
accidents see under misfortune
action and consequence
AFTER the feast comes the reckoning
ANOTHER day, another dollar
ASK a silly question and you get a silly answer
as you BAKE, so shall you brew
as you BREW, so shall you bake
CATCHING’S before hanging
CRIME doesn’t pay
they that DANCE must pay the fiddler
DO right and fear no man
he who DRINKS beer, thinks beer
the END justifies the means
GARBAGE in, garbage out
ILL gotten goods never thrive
IN for a penny..
as you MAKE your bed, so you must lie upon it
the NAIL that sticks up gets hammered down
ONE year’s seeding makes seven years’ weeding
he who PAYS the piper calls the tune
he who PLANTS thorns should not expect to gather roses
if you PLAY with fire you get burnt
who won’t be RULED by the rudder must be ruled by the rock
who SAYS A must say B
as you SOW, so you reap
they that sow the wind shall reap the whirlwind
