- Live horse and you will get grass
The more hurry the less speed,
Its a bad hound that is not worth whistling for,
If everything was to be done twice all would be wise,
Men preposes but 'God disposes,
- It is better late than never
It is not off the wind she took it,
No sooner said than done, Live horse and you will get grass,
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. - Hills look green far away but are not always grassy. Strike the iron while it is hot. As long as the fox went he is caught at last. A stitch in time saves nine.
Its a long road that has not a turn. - Collector
