    Where there is a will there is a way.
    Waste not want not
    Experian keeps a dear school but fools can learn at none other
    Time and tide wait no man
    There's a many a slip twix the cup and the lip.
    Never put off until to morrow what you can do to day.
    One good turn deserves another
    Look before you leap.
    It is anough to give sorrow good morrow when you meet it
    A watched pot never boils.
    Tis better to go to bed without your supper than to rise in debt.
    It is better to wear out than rust out.
