- (continued from previous page)There are none so blind as they that will not see.
She pays him in his own coin.
He who slings mud is loosing ground.
After a storm comes a calm.
Fools rush to where angels fear to tread.
It is as good to be out of the world as out of fashion.
Not dead but gone before
For want of decency is want of sense.
To err is human to forgive divine.
On their merits modest men are dumb.
Facts are stubborn things.
He let the cat out of the bag.
It is better be sure than sorry.
A rooling stone gathers no moss.
A new broom sweeps clean.
Luck is better than early using.
Constant drop wears a hole in a stone.
Dont count your chickens before they are hatched.
Health is better than wealth.
He killed the two birds with the one throw.
Pride goes before a fall.
Got light, Gone light.(continues on next page)
