  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    a stretch in time saves nine
    there are long horns on cows over the sea
    a good beginning is half the work
    economy is half the batter of life
    one hour in the morning is better than two in the evening
    listen to the sound of the river and you will catch a trout
    still waters run deep
    out of sight out of mind
    laugh and the world laughs with you
    a bird in the hand is better than two on the bush
