- Never say die till you're dead.
He that by the plough would thrive,
Himself must either hold or drive.
Never do to others what you would not like done to yourself.

An empty bag won't stand up.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Two wrongs never make one right.
It is better be sure than sorry.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away.(continues on next page)
