- Experience teaches fools to keep from kicking mules.
A half a loaf is better than no bread.
Children and fools should not handle sharp edged tools.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Small twigs light big fires.
Better later than ever.
A person often cuts a rod that beats himself.
A borrowed horse wears hard hooves.
Cows from over the seas have long horns.
You can't put a man's head on a boy's shoulder's
What ever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.
Many hands make light work.- Collector
