  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.
    Rise with the lark and go to bed with the dark.
    A watched pot will never boil.
    It is a long road that has no turn.
    You will never miss the water till the well goes dry.
    Empty vessels make the most noise.
    There is seldom smoke
