  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    One good turn deserves another
    A stitch in time saves nine
    Tell me your company and I will tell you what you are
    United we stand and divided we fall
    A little tastes sweet
    A slip of the tongue is no fault of the mind
    If a joke you cannot take then a joke you should'nt make
    Work is better than talk.
    The truth never choked a man.
    You cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's lug.
    There are two sides to every story.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    A full purse makes a light heart.
    Charity begins at home.
    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
    They who have a goose will get a goose
    If the cap fits you wear it
