Do you have a proverb on keeping promises and also on people perception of others?

On keeping promises:
Sa ki pwomèt bliye, sa ki espere sonje.
The one who makes the promise forgets,
The one who waits for the promise remembers.
or
Bay kou bliye, pote mak sonje.
The one who assaults, forgets,
The one who was assaulted remembers.

On people's perception of others, try this one:
Jijman jiri pa jijman lasosyete.
The jury's verdict is not society's verdict.
