  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.
    He that goes a borrowing, goes a sorrowing
    Keep a shop, and the shop will keep you.
    Plough deep while sluggards sleep.
    A handful of March dust, is worth a handful of gold.
    Neither a borrower or a lender be.
    A stitch in time saves nine
    The straight road is the right road.
    He's a good man who minds his own business
