  1. A slice of a cut loaf will not be missed.
    The proof of the pudding is the eating.
    Too many cooks spoil the broth.
    Ask no questions and you will be told no lies.
    Dote in the midden and you will see no motes.
    Least said is easiest mended.
    Love many, trust few always paddle your own canoe.
    Butter to butter is no kitchen.
    A galloping horse will never take notice.
    Something is better than nothing.
    The smaller the bumbee the bigger the buzz.
