You will reach your destination even though you travel slowly. You do not really know your friends from your enemies until the ice breaks. You can’t complain about the sea if you suffer shipwreck for the second time. Wrath often consumes what god gives husbands. When your neighbour's wall breaks, your own is in danger. Useless wisdom is double foolishness. Two make an army against one. To whom it itches, scratches it.
