  1. A stitch in time saves nine.
    A good beginning is half the work.
    A closed mouth catches no flies.
    There is no place like home.
    Keep a thing for seven years and you will find use of it.
    The early bird catches the worm.
    A half a loaf is better than no bread.
    It is never too late to mend.
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    It is a long road that has no turn.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    All that glitters is not gold.
    Deep water runs smooth.
    Fools make feast but wise men eat them.
    The man on the fence is a good hurler.
