- (continued from previous page)when a person is trying to find out other peoples business and always talking about them.
When you do anything wrong or break anything people say "There is no use crying over spilt milk". I have often heard "One man's liking is another man's poison". It is said when one man says he likes a thing and another man says he hates a thing.
"Time and pace would bring a snail to America" is said if a person was in a hurry. "Look before you leap" Make sure you are safe before venturing to do anything.
