- A good name is better than wealth.
A good word costs nothing.
A false friend is worse than a bitter enemy.
A penny saved is a penny gained.

A friend in need is a friend indeed.

A little rain lays much dust.
A little spark makes a great flame.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Better late than never.
Barking dogs seldom bite.
Cut your coat according to your measure.

Good ware makes quick markets.(continues on next page)
