- (continued from previous page)Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.
A burnt child dreads the fire.
A fool and his money are soon parted.
Help yourself and God will help you.
Every man's house is his castle.
Least said soonest mended.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Look before you leap.
Silence gives consent.
Silence is golden.
There are none so blind as those who will not see.
As good to be out of the world as out of the fashion
Set a beggar on horse-back and he will outride the devil.
Facts are sudden things.
Want of decency is want of sense.
Never sell yours hens on a wet day.
Beauty never boiled the pot.
Take care of the pence and the pounds will take care of themselves.
Two heads are better than one even if they are sheeps heads.
When the cat is out the mice can play.
It's never too late to mend.
All is not gold that glitters.(continues on next page)
