    A noisy brook is always shallow.
    A burned child dreads the fire.
    Constant dropping wears away a rock.
    They seldom think who think they do.
    Time and patience will bring a snail to America.
    Smooth waters run deep.
    He's as daft as a half-penny watch.
    No news is good news.
