- (continued from previous page)It is better to be first in a wood as last in a bog.
The longest way around is the shortest way home.
There is no place like home.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
A light heart lives long.
Better to die than lie.
Smooth waters run deep.
Out of sight out of mind.
Every day has its own duties.
After a storm comes calm.
A wet and windy May fills the barn with corn and hay.
Never take a book by its cover.
A penny wise and a pound foolish.
Nature breaks through the eyes of a cat.
Never too late to mend.
Time nor tide will not wait for anyone.
- There is no fireplace like your own.
One thought before is worth three after.
No use in sparing when all is gone.
Give well, give quickly.
As long as the day, the night comes. - Collector
