   These are some proverbs I heard at home from my grandmother.
   "A slow fire makes sweet malt"
   "A lie has no legs"
   "A stitch in time saves nine"
   "A penny saved is a penny gained"
   "A glutton lives to eat but a wise man eats to live"
   "Better is an ass that speaks well than a prophet that speaks ill"
   "Smooth waters run deep and the dirt lies on the bottom"
   "For the want of a nail the shoe was lost, for the want of a shoe the horse was lost, for the want of a horse the rider was lost and for the want of a rider the battle was lost."
   "Look before you leap"
   "High winds blow on high hills"
   "Kindle the dry sticks and the green ones will catch"
   "No gains no pains"
   "One year's seeding nine year's weeding"
   "Praise a fair day at night"
   "Small leaks sink great ships"
