5. Saturdays moon comes seven years too soon.
You should never take the book by the cover.

Until you bring the clean water in."- Collector

- 6. A wink is as good as a not to a blind
horse.
Six of one and half a dozen of another.
Out of the frying pan into the fire.
Birds of a feather flock to-gether.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
It is a hard door that does not keep out some of the wind.
Talk of the devil and he'll appear.
It's an ill wind that blows nobody good.
Half a loaf is better than no bread.
Times flies and death approaches.7. Thinking is far from knowing.
Every crow thinks her own bird the fairest.
Do not Spur a free horse.
New brooms sweep clean. Still water runs deep.
A penny wise and a pound foolish.
Old sayings are true sayings.- Collector
