• The end justifies the means.

• The evening crowns the day.

• The first blow is half the battle.

• The fool wanders, the wise man travels.

• The greatest hate springs from the greatest love.

• The higher up, the greater the fall.

• The king’s favour is no inheritance.

• The last straw that broke the camels back.

• The longest day must have an end.

• The more haste the less speed.
