You never miss the water till the well goes dry.
Practice what you preach.
Laugh and the worlds laughs with you: weep and you weep alone.
Feast and your halls are crowded;
Fast and the world goes by.
A word is enough for a wise man.
Man proposes but God disposes.
Too many cooks spoil the broth.
New kings, new rules.
Look before you leap.
Better late than never.
A penny worth of law is enough for anyone.
Silence is golden.
Keep an open ear but a closed mouth.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Let sleeping dogs lie.
Marry in haste and repent at leisure.
Think twice before you speak once.
Handsome is who handsome does.
A swarm of bees in May is worth a load of hay; A swarm of bees in June is worth a silver spoon.
