- (continued from previous page)mind as what exercise is to the bodyThe longest way round is the shortest way home
Eaten bread is soon forgotten
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread
Children should not handle edged tools
A friend in need is a friend indeedA cat may come back but not so the money that is spent foolishlyWrite your letter when you are angry but do not post it until the anger is gone Put silk on a goat and it is a goat always
It is easier to find fault than to give praise
Half a loaf is better than no bread
Loneliness is better than strife
A friend is known in adversity
Do not put off until tomorrow what you can do today(continues on next page)
