    Proverbs
    A bird in the hand it worth two in the bush.
    Empty barrels make most noise.
    Fine feather make fine birds
    Your pocket is your best friend,
    Hills are green far away,
    Rise with the lark and lie with the lamb.
    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.
