  1. Mocking is catching.
    Laziness will never offend you.
    Its good that mends.
    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.
    Never take the book by the cover.
    A bird in the hand is better that two in the bushes.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    Praise the youth and will work.
    Death if money could buy the rich would live and the poor would die.
    Home never was like this and the fire dark out.
    A penny in a poor mans pocket is better that two pennys in a rich mans pocket.
    Time or tide waits for nobody.
