- Proverbs.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
One ounce of precaution is better than a ton of cure.
When wine is in wit is out.
A stitch in time saves nine.
A bird in the hand is worth two in a bush.
Don't count your chickens before they are hatched.
It is better to be a coward five minutes than a dead man all your life.
Beauty is only skin deep.
People are judged by the company they keep.
The simple are easily deceived
We never loose a good opportunity.
Fine feathers do not make fine(continues on next page)- Collector
