- From generation to generations people have been listening to old proverbs and sayings but I suppose the oldest and wisest of them all is this.
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy, and wide.
Another proverb which all wise people should know and put into practice is:-
Never leave off till to-morrow what you can do to-day
Other sayings are:-
Always look before you leapNever try to cross a bridge until you come to it.
Strike while the iron is red.
The early bird catches the worm.
Those who reach the top first must climb the hill
A dear article is always the cheapest
Work well begun, is half done
A stitch in time saves nine
Manners maketh man
The child is father of the man(continues on next page)
