Добра гнушаться — с людьми не знаться. (пословицы о добре) Добра желаешь, добро и делай. (пословицы о добре) Добра ищи, а худо само придет. (пословицы о добре) Добра на худо не меняют. (пословицы о добре) Добра не смыслишь, так худа не делай. (пословицы о добре) Добра, что клада, ищут, а худо под рукой. (пословицы о добре) Добрая слава злому ненавистна. (пословицы о добре) Добро быть в радости и жить в сладости. (пословицы о добре) Добро вспомянется, а лихо не забудется. (пословицы о добре) Добро делаем — добро и снится, а худо делаем — худо и снится. (пословицы о добре) Добро наживай, а худо изживай. (пословицы о добре) Добро не лихо — ходит тихо.
