Maxim 53
 
 
  Although a sultan's garment of honour is dear yet one's own old robe
is more dear; and though the food of a great man may be delicious, the
broken crumbs of one's own sack are more delicious.
 
 
        Vinegar by one's own labour and vegetables
        Are better than bread received as alms, and veal.
