  1. Proverbs

    Give some people an inch and they will take a mile.
    Love many trust few, always paddle your own canoe.
    Self praise is no praise.
    Never count your chickens before they are hatched.
    Bad news travels quickly.
    Things done by halves are ever done right.
    God helps them who help themselves.
    No news is good news.
    By mistakes we learn.
    The kettle can't call the pot black.
    Rome was not built in a day.
