- (continued from previous page)She watches him as a cat would watch a mouse. A man's house is his castle. It is a bad wind that blows no one any good. After a storm comes a calm. A storm in a tea cup. Saying and doing are two things, Better late than never God help those who help themselves. Look before you leap, A penny for your thoughts. Set a begger on horse back and he will out ride the devil. The longest way round is the shortest way home. As old as Mathusalen's cat Dead men tell no tails you might as well be looking for a needle in a bundle of straw. As hard as a stone You could [treat?] a mouse on it. (Said when tea is too strong)
