    Proverbs
    Two heads are wiser than one
    Think twice before you speak once
    Two wrongs never make a right
    The middle of the road is no shough
    Penny wise pound foolish
    Its a wise man that carries his over-coat a fine day
    It's no good to cry over spilt milk
    Clatar mo clean every day washing and no day clean.
    Six old shoes make three pairs
