Beauty is only skin deep

 

An enemy's enemy is a friend

 

All is fair in love and war

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

 

Count not your chickens before they are hatched

 

Wisdom is nothing but earthly common sense

 

Unity is strength

 

Truth always triumphs

Don't kill the goose that lays golden eggs

 

Don't cry wolf once too often

 

Don't bite more than you can chew

 

Charity begins at home

 

Beauty is only skin deep
