  1. (continued from previous page)
    No body can throw the stone
    There is no one to good to do his own work.
    Dont cry over spilt milk
    The longest way around is the shortest way home.
    Two many cooks spoil the broth
    Every cock crows on his own dunghill
    Poverty is no crime
    Fine feathers make fine birds
    Think twice before you speak once
    The more haste the less speed
    Rome was not built in a day.
    It is better to be born lucky than rich.
