| If you run after two hares, you will catch neither. |
| If you sing before breakfast, you will cry before night. |
| If you want a thing well done, do it yourself. |
| In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. |
| It is a foolish bird that soils its own nest. |
| It is a foolish sheep that makes the wolf his confessor. |
| It's a long lane that has no turning. |
| It's a sad heart that never rejoices. |
| It is better to give than to take. |
| It is easier to pull down than to build. |

| It is love that makes the world go round. |
| It is never too late to mend. |
| It is no use crying over spilt milk. |
| It is too late to lock the stable when the horse has been stolen. |
| It is useless to flog a dead horse. |
| It never rains but it pours. |
| It takes two to make a quarrel. |
| A Jack of all trades is master of none. |
| Jam tomorrow and jam yesterday -- but never jam today. |
| Keep something for a rainy day. |
| Kill not the goose that lays the golden eggs. |
| Idle folk have the least leisure. |
| If a man deceives me once, shame on him; if he deceives me twice, shame on me. |
| If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well. |
| If the mountain will not come to Mahomet, Mahomet must go to the mountain. |
| If you do not like it, you may lump it. |
| If you want peace, prepare for war. |
| Ill news comes apace. |
| An ill payer never wants an excuse. |
| Ill weeds grow apace. |
| Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. |
| In a calm sea, every man is a pilot. |

| In vino veritas. |
| In wine, there is truth. |
| It is a sad house where the hen crows louder than the cock. |
| It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good. |
| It is as well to know which way the wind blows. |
| It is better to wear out than to rust out. |
| It's dogged that does it. |
| It is easy to bear the misfortunes of others. |
| It is good fishing in troubled waters. |
| It is ill jesting with edged tools. |
| It is ill striving against the stream. |
| It is ill waiting for dead men's shoes. |
| It is the unexpected that always happens. |
| It needs more skill than I can tell to play the second fiddle well. |
| It takes all sorts to make a world. |
| It will be all the same a hundred years hence. |
| Judge not, that ye be not judged. |
| Kind hearts are more than coronets. |
| Know your own faults before blaming others for theirs. |
| Knowledge is power. |
