    It is too late to lock the stable, when the steed is stolen.
    Necessity is the mother of Invention.
    One year's seeding is nine year's weeding.
    You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink.
    Good wives make the best husbands.
    It is a long road that has no turn.
    Never count the chickens before they are hatched.
