- (continued from previous page)When it rains it pours.
One trouble does not come alone.
Deep waters run smooth.
Closed mouths catch no flies.
The early birds catch the worm.
God helps those who help themselves but God help those who are caught helping themselves!
Its a long road that has no turn.
Two heads are wiser than one.
The mice can play when the cat is out.
Dont put off until to-morrow what you can do to-day.
