    his eyes.
    Where there is a will there is always a way.
    Never venture never win.
    Better late than never.
    Many hands make light work.

  2. A rolling stone gathers no moss. A stitch in time saves nine. Spare the rod and spoil the child. Never go a bye road while you have a high road. Learning and manners are charming companions. A hatching hen never gets fat. Time and tide wait for no man. The darkest hour is before the dawn. A bird in the fist is worth two in the bush. There are many changes in a march day. Happy is the bride that the sun shines on. Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. Always taken out of a meal and never putting in will soon come to the bottom.
