- (continued from previous page)Never too late to mend.
The old dog for the hard road and the pup for the path.
Rear a pup and you will have a dog.
More hurry less speed.
A pigs ear can never nake mutton.
A coat horse could never win the Derby.
Keep the shop and the shop will keep you.
Fools make feast while wise men play.
Once bitten twice shy.
One straw broke the Camel's back.
You cannot put an old head on young shoulders.
Never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you
A pound of pluck is worth a ton of luck.
Grass will grow when the horse has died
The man who knows the most has the least to say and the man who has the most throws the least away
