Bargains are costly.

Be as you would seem to be.

Be not ashamed of your craft.

Be silent, or say something better than silence.

Be the thing you would be called.

Bear and bull catch no fox.

Beauty is a good letter of introduction.

Begin to weave and God will give the thread.

Beginning and ending shake hands.

Begun is half done.

Better a friendly denial than an unwilling compliance.

Better a good cow than a cow of a good kind.

Better a lean agreement than a fat lawsuit.

Better a lean peace than a fat victory.

Better a living dog than a dead lion.

Better a patch than a hole.

Better an honest enemy than a false friend.

Better an unjust peace than a just war.

Better ask twice than go wrong once.

Better badly mounted than proud on foot.

Better envy than pity.

Better free in a foreign land than a serf at home.

Better give nothing than stolen alms.

Better is an enemy to good.

Better is better.
