  1. A stitch in time saves nine.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss
    The more hurry the less speed
    A friend in need is a friend indeed
    You should never buy a pig in a bag
    One sense bought is worth ten taught
    You should never take the book by the cover
    You'll never miss the water till the well runs dry
    The longest way round is the nearest way home.
