- Smooth waters run deep.
Youth never comes a second time.
There are no gains without pains
Too many cooks spoil the broth
The idle man tempts the devil
Your pocket is your best friend always
Early to bed and early to rise make a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
Fine feathers make fine birds.
Whatever you have to do,
Do it with all your might,
Things that are only half done,
Are never done right.
The path of glory leads, but to the grave
The pen is mightier than the sword
Opposition is the life of trade
It is a very long road that has no turn
Many hands make light work.
As the old cock crow the young cock learns.
There is many a slip between the cup and the lip
Let you call the tune and I will pay the piper
Spare the rod and spoil the child.(continues on next page)
