- Too many cooks spoil the broth.
Live horse and you will get grass.
Eaten bread is soon forgotten.
Empty vessels make the most noise.
Time or tide waits for no man.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
Cows far away wear long horns.
Give a dog a bad name and you can hang him.
An idle mind is the devil's workshop.- Collector

- Out of debt,out of danger.
Little boats must keep near the shore.
Constant dropping wears the stone.
Penny wise is often a pound foolish.
Blood is thicker than water.
The more hurry,the less speed.
Many hands make light work.
Every pea helps to fill the bag.- Collector
