    Deeds are won by a good deal done.

    Deeds are won by a good deal done.
    Nature breaks out through the eyes of a cat.
    No fire like your own fire
    May the of your wagon blind your enemies.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    A half a loaf is better than no bread.
    Robbing Peter to pay Paul.
    Buying a pig in a bag.
    Never judge the book by the cover.
    Spare the rod and spoil the child.
    The early bird catches the worms
    Laugh and the word laughs with you.
    Mind the pennies and the pounds will mind themselves.
    An idle man tempts the devil.
    God's help is nearer than the door.
    Too many cooks spoil the broth
    Children and fools should not handle edged tools
