  1. Two is a company three is a crowd. Tell me your company and I'll tell you what you are. A rolling stone gathers no moss. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. A stitch in time saves nine. It is too late to spare when all is spent.

  2. Birds of a feather flock together. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Throw a trout to catch a salmon. There is no one as blind as the man that wont see. Down to Gehenna, or up to the Throne he travels who travels alone.
