    Proverbs.
    Procrastination is the thief of time. Every dog has his day. A cat in gloves catches no mice. A word to the wise is enough. God helps those who help themselves. If you want a thing done do it yourself. For want of a nail the shoe was lost. For want of a shoe the horse was lost. For want of a horse the rider was lost.
