  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    There is a saying that's old and true yet it is as good as new, never trouble trouble until trouble troubles you. Make hay while the sun shines.
    Never put off until to-morrow what you should do to-day. Robbing Peter to pay Paul. My own spun on another persons horse. The day of the wind is not the day of the scollops. It never rains but it pours. There is many a slip twixt the cup and the lip, and Rime and tide wait for no man.
