- Too many cooks spoil t broth.
Never judge a book by the cover.
A closed mouth catches no flies.
There is many a change in a march day.
A stitch in time saves mine.
Second thoughts are often best.
Far away cows wear long horns.
Better late than ever.
A bird in the hand is better than two in the bush.

Teller - Mr. Thomas Quirke (50)
SilverminesProverbs
1. A swarm of bees in May is worth a load of hay. 2. A swarm of bees in June is worth a silver spoon. 3. A swarm of bees in July is not worth a fly.
4. A bird in the hand is better than two in the bush. 5. A rotten apple spoils his companions. 6. Second thoughts are often best. 7. Cows far away wear long horns. 8. Many a change in a March day.
