  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    Where there is smoke there must be some fire
    All light tasks are hard at first
    Put down no fire and you'll have no fire
    A stitch in time saves nine
    The longest way round is the nearest way home
    A half door is better than no door
    It is not the day of the wind is the day for the scollaps
    A rolling stone gathers no moss
    The more hurry the less speed
