- The more the hurry the less speed.
Where there is an if there is a want.
The older you are the more you learn.
Early to bed early to rise,
Makes a man happy healthy and wise.
It is never to late to learn.
A watched pot never boils.
A burned child dreads the fire.
The devil finds some mischief still for idle hands to do.
Where there is a will there is a way.
Patience is a virtue have it if you can(continues on next page) - Collector
