"A stitch in time saves nine,"
"A watch pot never boils,"
"All is well that ends well,"
"It is a bad wind that does nobody good,"
"A rolling stone gathers no moss,"
"All is fair in love and war,"
"The more hurry the less speed,"
"Many hands make light work,"
"Too many cooks spoil the broth,"
"Spare the rod and spoil the child,"
"A wilful waste makes a woeful want,"
"Waste not want not,"
"A half loaf is better than no bread,"
"Better late than never,"
"Last but not least,"
"Its never too late to mend,"
"A good beginning is half the work,"
"A good contriver is better than an early riser,"
"One good turn deserves another,"(continues on next page) - Collector
