English national qualities and proverbs Cult of private life My house is my castle. Put not your hand between the bark and the tree. Self-control Anger and haste hinder good counsel. When angry, count a hundred. Patience to others opinion Tastes differ. So many men, so many minds.

Keeping their word Promise is debt. A bargain is a bargain. Value their reputation Не that has an ill name is half hanged. Allocation of money and time Time is money. Hard-working Не who would catch fish must not mind getting wet. Не who would search for pearls must dive below. Love of richness Money begets money. Money is power.

Ungreediness Money spent on the brain is never spent in vain. Politeness Politeness costs little (nothing), but yields much. All doors open to courtesy. Honesty A clean fast is better than a dirty breakfast. A clean hand wants no washing. Love of risking and traveling It is better to wear out than to rust out Nothing venture, nothing have

All people are different, but they also have many things in common. And their proverbs say, that it is good in ones house but is better in yours, that patient and labor will do everything, that you shouldnt postpone anything for tomorrow and that when the man lives he hopes.
