    (continued from previous page)
    Every cloud has a silver lining.
    A closed mouth catches no flies.
    The hills are green far away.
    Patience is a virture.
    Rome was not built in a day.
    You can't put an old head on young shoulders.
    Waste not, want not.
    Think twice before you speak once.
    Little said is easy mended.
    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.
    Borrowed horses have hard hooves.
