- Around here there are many old proverbs quoted by the people. Here are some of them :A stitch in time saves nine.
A good beginning is half the work.
The eyes of the fool are on the ends of the earth.
When all fruit fails you are welcome haw.
What is gone when lost is valued most.
Once a man and twice a child.
A wilful waste makes a woful want.
An old saying is a true one.
Better late than never.
