- (continued from previous page)You can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear.
You cant squeeze blood out of a turnip.
You cant knock a bird off a bush that he is'nt on.
Every cloud has a silver lining.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
The sweetest rose first meets decay.
Look before you leap.
Obedience is better than sacrifice.
Smooth waters run deep.
No use crying over spilt milk.
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
Waste not want not.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
He that goes a borrowing goes a sorrowing.
Wilful waste makes woeful want.
The longest lane has a turning.
The older the fiddle the sweeter the tune.
All is not gold that glitters.
A barking dog never bites.
Where there's a will theres a way.- Collector
