  1. He that lives on hopes will die fasting
    Lost time is never found again
    There will be sleeping enough in the grave
    The sleeping cat catches no mouse
    Never leave till tomorrow what you can do today
    A bird in the hand is worth two on a bush.
    An industrious man shall never starve.
    Diligence is the mother of good luck
    The cat in gloves cannot catch mice
    Take the ball at the first hop.
    An idle mind tempts the devil
    A life of leisure and a life of laziness are two things.
    Constant dripping wears the stone.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
