  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    Time and tide wait for no man.
    All is not gold that glitters.
    Birds of a feather flock together.
    The pen is mightier than the sword.
    Penny wise and pound foolish.
    Empty vessles make most noise.
    Never leave off till to-morrow what you can do to-day.
