  1. A stitch in time saves nine.
    Good luck to the work.
    Look before you leap.
    It takes two to make a quarrel.
    To-morrow the sun will be spinning although it is cloudy to-day.
    A sunny shower only lasts a half an hour.
    Make hay while the sun shines.
    It is never two late to mend.
    Actions speak louds than words.
    Think twice before you speak once.
