  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    'Tis a bad dog that is not worth whistling for.
    Tis a long lane that hasent a turn.
    Too late to spare when all is spent.
    As good be out of the world as out of the fashion
    The dog for the hard road and the pup for the path.
    'Tis not a cow with a big udder that gives the most milk.
    The jolliest of all boys make the best of men
    Money well earned money well spent.
    Never judge the book by the cover.
    No use in crying after split milk.
    The more haste the less speed.
    A friend in need is a friend in need.
    Courage is half the battle.
    If you want to know me come and live with me.
