The honey is sweet, but the bee stings.

Bees that have Honey in their Mouths, have Stings in their Tails.
Thomas (writer) Fuller
Her mouth is a honey-blossom,
No doubt, as the poet sings;
But within her lips, the petals,
Lurks a cruel bee that stings.William Dean Howells
I am the king! I am the king! I am the king!
One dead marine through the hatch,
Scratch and scrape this heavenly body,
Every inch of winning skin,
Honey Honey Honey Honey Honey, come and kiss me-e-e-e-e-e!Nick Cave
The world is a nettle; disturb it, it stings.
Grasp it firmly, it stings not.Robert Bulwer-Lytton
The three-toed tree-toad
Sings his sweet ode
To the moon;
The funny bunny
And his honey
Trip in tune.Arthur Guiterman
