"Beware of small expenses, for a small leak sinks the largest ship; and that the sweet mouth makes its owner a beggar's cane, and that fools throw bright dinners, which are eaten by wise men.

Beware of small expenses, for a small leak sinks the largest ship; and that the sweet mouth makes its owner a beggar's cane, and that fools throw bright dinners, which are eaten by wise men.
"Hungarian
"Őrizkedjetek a kis kiadásoktól, mert egy kis lék elmeríti a legnagyobb hajót; és hogy az inyencz száj koldusbotra juttatja gazdáját s hogy a bolondok csapnak fényes ebédeket, a melyeket bölcs emberek esznek meg."
