- (continued from previous page)make hay while the sun shines.
Always save for the rainy day.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Small leaks sink great ships.
Of little account is a fly until it gets into the eye.
An idle mind tempts the devil.
He who goes a borrowing goes a sorrowing.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
All that glitters is not gold.
Ne'er cast a clout until May is out.
After the storn, comes a calm.
Borrowed horses need hard hooves.
The last straw breaks the horse's back.
Time or tide wait for no man.
Hills are green far away.
Silence is golden.
Better late than never.
Health is better than wealth.
Don't judge the book by the cover.(continues on next page)
