- Man proposes but god disposes.
Look before you leap.
Tell me your company _ I will tell you who you are.
An empty Sack doesn't stand
It is a long lane that has no turning. - There is no feast till a roast and no torment till marriage.
Fine feathers make fine birds.
Praise youth and it will come.
A windy day is no day for thatching.
It takes a rogue to catch a rogue.
The cleverest hens lay out.
The darkest clouds have a silver lining.
Two people of the same trade never agree.
Young fools are many, but old fools are worse than any. - A little help is better than a lot of pity.
Two heads are better than one.
A willing mind is half the work.
Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy and wise.
Time is a good story-teller.
The truth never choked a man.(continues on next page)- Collector
