  1. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
    A friend in need is a friend indeed.
    Empty vessels make most sound.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    Strike the iron when it is hot.
    An apple a day keeps the Doctor away.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    Patience and Perseverance made a Bishop of his Reverence.
    Too many cooks spoil the broth.
