- (continued from previous page)Don't try to grasp at too much or you will lose all.
- Too many cooks spoil the broth. Never leave till tomorrow what you can do today.
It s a long lane that has no turning. A stitch in time saves nine. Empty vessels make most sound. Rome was not built in a day. No road is long in good company. A little pot is soon hot. Old birds are not caught with chaff. A little help is worth a deal of pity. Many hands make light work. - Transcription guide » You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
