  1. A stitch in time saves nine.
    A half a loaf is better than no bread.
    Better late than ever.
    It is never too late to learn.
    Two heads are better than one.
    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    Idleness is the mother of want.
    You will never miss the water until the well runs dry.
    A good run is better than a bad stand.
    Young a gambler old a beggar.
    Honesty is the best policy.
    Never put back till tomorrow what you can do today.
    Too many cooks spoil the brath.
