Bad excuses are worse than none.

Barking dogs seldom bite.

Beauty and folly are often companions.

Beauty is but skin-deep.

Beggars' bags are bottomless.

Be just before you are generous.

Best is cheapest.

Better buy than borrow.

Better early than late.

Better go to heaven in rags than to hell in embroidery.

Better late than never.

Better lose the saddle than the horse.

Better to wear out than rust out.

Between two stools you fall to the ground.

Birds of a feather flock together.

Blessed is he that expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.

Blood is thicker than water.

Books and friends should be few but good.

Brevity is the soul of wit.
