    Spare the rod and spoil the child.
    Your pocket is your friend.

  2. Old Sayings

    It is a old saying while there is life there is hope.
    A wheel never turns but it leaves a track.
    It is said that a tailors timbles will never put a bottom on one timble. A Ghost will never cross a stream. Where there is a white on your nail it is said you will get a parcel very soon.
