A stitch in time saves nine is said to have been the oldest proverb.
There is no fire place like our own.

A good beginning is half the battle. There is always a good deal to do round the corner. If you are wrong regret it, if you are wronged forget it. A rolling stone gathers no moss. Work is better than talk.
