- "A shut mouth catches no flies"
A new broom sweeps clean
Don't make a joke unless you can take one.
Charity begins at home, but it shouldn't end there."
Don't burn a penny candle, looking for a halfpenny.
An ounce of mirth is worth a pound of sorrow.
The mill cannot grind, with the water that has passed.- Collector
