  1. Proverbs (continued)

    (continued from previous page)
    A sitting hen gathers no straws.
    A penny wise and a pound foolish.
    Every cloud has a silver lining.
    Don't shout till you are out of the woods.
    Early to bed and early to rise, makes man healthy and wealthy and wise.
    Be old when young, that you may be young when old.
    See, hear and say nothing.
    Silence is golden.
    The darkest hour is that before the dawn.
    Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
    To err is human, to forgive divine.
    A good word never broke a tooth.
    As you sow, so shall you reap.
