- While the cat is out the mouse can play. It is never too late to mend. A stitch in time saves nine. There is no place like home. A bird in the hand is worth two on the bush. You can not whistle and eat meal. A closed mouth catches no flies. Mind the pennies and the pounds will mind them selves.
Out of debt out of danger. People in glass houses should not throw stones.
When wine is in wit is out. An idle man tempts the devil.
