- As you brew you must bake.
A slow fire makes sweet malt.
A straw best shows how the wind blows.
An idle man tempts the devil.
A wrinkled purse a wrinkled face.
As the fool thinketh so the bell clinketh.
A knave is one knave but a fool is many.
Smooth waters run deep.
A stitch in time saves nine.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Empty vessels make most sound.
Make hay while the sun shines.
Never put off till to-morrow what you can do to-day.
A penny saved is a penny gained.
Take care of the pence and the pounds will take of themselves.
A Glutton lives to eat; a wise man eats to live.
A good thing when lost is valued most.- Collector
