A just war is better than an unjust peace.-Fighting between countries for a fair and good cause is better than no fighting in a situation that is unfair.

A word to the wise is enough.-A very brief warning or explanation is enough for an intelligent person.

God helps them that help themselves.-This semi-humorous saying suggests that we should not rely entirely on God to help us. God will help us if we make an effort.

Fighting between countries for a fair and good cause is better than no fighting in a situation that is unfair.-A very small hint is enough to convey our meaning. It is not always necessary to say what we want explicitly.

Even the prayers of an ant reach to Heaven.-God hears all living beings.
