  1. He is richest who has fewest wants.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    A bird in the hand is worth two in a bush.
    Spare the rod and spoil the child.
    Common fame is seldom to blame.
    Hills look green far away.
    Better alone than in bad company
    Clever people often miss their mark.
    Many hands make light work.
    An empty sack can't stand and a full one can't bend
