- (continued from previous page)He who slings mud is losing ground. The sight of you is good for sore eyes.
- Immodest words admit of no defence
For want of decency is want of sense
He who slings mud is losing ground.
The longest way round is the shortest way home.
Better late never.
A stitch in time saves nine.
Laugh and the world laughs with you
Weep and you weep on your alone, feast and your halls are crowded, fast and they turn away.
Strike the iron while it is hot.
Too many cooks spoil the broth.
Small boats keep near shore,
Larger one venture more.
A rolling stone gathers no moss.(continues on next page) - Collector
