- Win gold and wear it.
A stitch in time saves nine.
Wilful waste makes woeful want.
A street angel and a house devil."Proverbs"
Smooth water runs deep.
A straw best shows how the wind blows.
Look before you leap.
A nod is as good as a wink for a blind horse.
An empty sack cant stand.
Fine feathers make fine birds.
The best hurler is often in the ditch.
A new broom sweaps clean, but the old one is best for the corners.
There is no fireside like your own.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Send a goose to Dover and a goose she will return.- Collector
