  1. A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    A bad carpenter blames his tools.
    Its no use crying over spilt milk.
    Birds of feather flock together.
    Tell me your company and I'll tell you what you are.
    Every cloud has a silver lining,=.
    Evil doers evil thinkers.
    The darkest hour is before the dawn.
    A penny saved a penny gained.
    A penny wise a pound foolish.
    You cannot have your loaf and eat it.
    It's better to be born lucky than rich.
    Do not put off until tomorrow what can be done to day.
    A bird in the hand is worth
