   your-self for to warm take care that your tongue does your neighbour no harm.
   Convince a fool against his will and they're of the same opinion still.
   Money burns a hole in your pocket until it is gone.
   Keep your face to the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind you.
   The longest way round is shortest way home.
   Never regret for what you never had.
   Never judge the book by its cover.
   Never ask anyone to do anything that you can do you can do your-self.
   Seldom fed and often hungry this is the way with a poor mans dog.
   Money is made round to go round.
   All is well that ends well
