A new brush sweeps clean.
One penny gets another.
If the cap suits you wear it.
Your pocket is your friend.
Lie with the lamb and rise with the bird.
A little tastes sweet.
It is a bad wind that does not blow good to someone.
Fools live but learn not.
After a storm comes a calm.
A full purse makes a light heart.
Fine feathers make fine birds.
The world would not make a race- horse of a donkey.
You could not make a silk purse out of a pig's ear.
A thing that is got easily is spent easily.
One beetle knows another.
Work is better than talk.
Pride will have a fall.
Give thy mind no tongue.- Collector
