- A watch pot never boils.
The more hurry the less speed.
You will never miss the water until the well runs dry.
Growing old growing worse.
It is a long lae but has no turning.
If you cannot do a thing right it is better not to do it at all.
Between two stools you fall to the ground.
One trouble never comes alone.
A stitch in time saves nine.
You are taller standing like a dog sitting.- Collector
