    (continued from previous page)
    Short reckoning makes long friends.
    Empty vessels make the most noise.
    Where the muck is the luck is.
    Spare the rod and spoil the child.
    A well is never missed until it is dry.
    An hour in the morning is worth two at night.
    A wise head keeps a quiet tongue.
    A good name is better than riches.
    A burned child dreads the fire.
