- A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Two heads are wiser than one.
As green as the grass of Ireland.
A stitch in time saves nine.
As dirty as a pig.
As black as soot.
As white as snow.
As cross as a bulldog.
As heavy as lead.
As light as a feather.
As poor as a Church mouse.
Look before you leap.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
A burned child dreads the fire.
As sweet as honey.
As good as gold.
As sour as gall.
As thick as a mule.
As busy as a bee.
As cold as ice.
Too many cooks spoil the broth.
Far off hills are green.
Rome was not built in a day.
As hard as iron.- Collector
