A Mouse Does Not Rely On Just

I Have Taken A Wife, I Have Sold My Sovereignty For A Dowry. [lat., Uxorem Accepi, Dote Imperium Vendidi.]

The Gods Confound The Man Who First Found Out How To Distinguish Hours! Confound Him, Too, Who In This Place Set Up A Sun-dial, To Cut And Hack My Days So Wretchedly Into Small Portions.

A Mouse Does Not Rely On Just One Hole.

The Poor Man Who Enters Into A Partnership With One Who Is Rich Makes A Risky Venture.

He Who Has In Due Season Become Rich, Unless He Saves In Due Season, Will In Due Season Starve.
