  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    Many hands make light work.
    Two heads are better than one.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    One good turn deserves another.
    A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.
    Where ignorance is bliss it is folly to be wise.
    He laugheth best who laugheth last.
