    (continued from previous page)
    There can be no window where there is no wall.
    No use crying over spilled milk.
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    History always repeats itself.
    No news is good news.
    Give a man a horse he can ride.
    You cannot put an old head on young shoulders.
    If you put a silk coat on a goat it is still a goat.
