The hand often travels to the part where the pain is. The hand that gives gathers. The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. The happier the time, the more quickly it passes. The harp dispels care. The hatred of knaves is preferable to their company. The hatred of knaves is preferable to their company. View proverb
