- (continued from previous page)Put a beggar on horseback & he'll ride to the devil.
Like father like son.
Spare the rod spoil the child.
A faithful friend is a strong shield.
Don't speak until spoken to.
The darkest night must have a moon.
- You cannot get blood from a turnip.
He that lays a trap for others is often caught himself.
You cannot get a tear from a stone.
One man can bring a horse to water but 20 wont make him drink it. - Collector
