- Better late than never.
You cannot put an old head on young shoulders.
The more hurry the less speed.
The longest way round is the shortest way home.
A half a loaf is better than no bread.
A dogs bark is worse than his bite.
There is no place like home.
You can't whistle and eat meat.
Many men have many minds.
A stitch in time saves nine.
Lie with the lamb and rise with the lark.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.
Time and tide wait for nobody.
Willful waste makes woeful want.
A good beginning is half the work.(continues on next page)
