- (continued from previous page)what you can do today.
A good name is better than riches. It's late to lock the stable when the horse is gone. Don't count the chickens till they come out. A new broom sweeps clean. You will never miss the water till the well runs dry. Rome wasn't built in a day. Make the hay while the sun shines. The more hurry the less speed. A rolling stone gathers no moss. The old cat never burns himself.
