  1. Proverbs

    Share Share Post
    Liars ought to have good memories.
    The longest way round is the shortest way home.
    Set a beggar on horseback and he'll outride the devil.
    A penny for your thoughts.
    The sight of you is good for sore eyes.
    There are none so blind as they that won't see. She watches as a cat would watch a mouse.
    Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    A friend indeed is a friend in need.
