Better a meal of vegetables where there is love than a fattened calf with hatred ; Better an open enemy, than a false friend; Better die with honor than live with shame; Better to light a candle than to curse the darkness; Better do it than wish it done; Better late than never; Better safe than sorry; Better to aim high and miss, than to aim low and reach target; Better to be alone than in bad company; Better to have loved and lost, than never have loved at all.
