  1. (continued from previous page)
    A fool and his money are soon married.
    First deserve, then desire.
    Jest not at sacred things.
    "Take the Ball at the Hop".
    Waste not, want not.
    A little pot is soon hot.
    Covet all, loose all.
    One good turn deserves another.
    Happiness is the perfume given out by a flower when crushed.
    Love many, trust few and always paddle your own canoe.
    When wine is in, wit is out.
    When there's a will, there's a way.
