  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    All that glitters is not gold.
    The more fuss the less haste.
    Honesty is the best policy.
    A shut mouth catches no flies.
    Keep good company or none.
    Many hands make light work.
    Time is a good storyteller.
    Work is better than talk.
