  1. Early to bed early to rise
    Makes a man happy healthy and wise.
    You are on the pigs back.
    The mill will never grind with water
    that has passed.
    What you don't know will not trouble you.
    Live horse and you will get grass.
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    A stich in time saves nine.
    Look before you leap.
    A bird in the hand is worth two on the bush.
    Time or tide waits for no man.
    The less you say the better you do.
    Correct in yourself what you blame
