- A wet and windy May fills the haggard full of hay. When all fruit falls welcome haws. Look before you leap. The more you eat the less you'll be hungry. A bird in your hand is worth two in the bush. One swallow makes no summer. Two heads are better than one. Fine feathers make fine birds. A stich in time saves nine. When wine is in wit is out. Better half a loaf than no bread. Mind your pennies and the pounds will mind themselves. Empty vessels make most sound. Least said soonest mendest. A burnt child dreads the fire. Early to bed, early to rise, make a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
Young a gambler, old a beggar.
Courage is half of the fight.
Opposition is the life of trade.- Collector
