- A new broom sweeps clean.
There is many a way of killing a dog besides choking him with butter.
A wink is as good as a nod to a blind horse,
If you don't speculate you won't accumulate.

There is as good fish in the sea as ever was caught.
The second boiled broth is always the best
Once bitten twice shy.
Silks and satins often put out the kitchen.
A burned child dreads the fire.
