    (continued from previous page)
    Once paid never craved.
    patience is a virtue.
    Look before you leap.
    Hills are green far away.
    Contentment is the best fortune.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    Early to bed and early to rise make us healthy wealthy and wise.
    Love is but a sugared pill.
