- (continued from previous page)It's a bad dog that's not worth whistling for.
Charity begins at home.
Waste not want not.
Don't burn a penny candle looking for a half-penny.
Health is better than wealth.
An ounce of mirth is worth a pound of sorrow.
A good laugh and a long sleep are the two best cures in a doctor's book.
Don't judge the first story till the second one catches your ear.
God is nearer than the door.
Happy is the bride that the sun shines on, and happy is the corpse that the rain pours on.
When thistles banish, sore hands vanish.
Deep water runs smooth.
