Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.
A bright ring around the moon foretells rain.
A bird in the hand is worth two int he bush.
A stitch in time saves nine.
Half a loaf is better than no bread

A scraper at the door keeps dirt from the floor.(continues on next page)- Collector
