4 Its a long lane that has no turning.
5 Its the last straw that breaks the camels back.
6 Marry in haste and repent at leisure.
7 If two evils, choose the lesser.
8 Set a fool on horseback, and he'll ride to hell.
9 Short reckonings make long friends.
10 Speak of the devil and you'll hear the clatter of his hoofs.
11 Silence gives consent.
12 Speech is silvern, silence is golden.
13 The mill will never grind with water that is past.
14 Too many cooks spoil the broth.
15 You cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's lug.(continues on next page)- Collector
