A Rolling Stone gathers no Moss;  It is good to make Hay while the Sun shines.

It’s neither Rhime nor Reason; What is got over the Devil’s Back will be spent under his Belly.

I talk of Chalk and you of Cheese; Charity begins at Home; Cut your Coat according to your Cloth;  What can’t be cur’d must be endur’d.

Save a Thief from Hanging, and he’ll cut your Throat; Jack will never make a Gentleman.

One scabbed Sheep marrs a whole Flock;  Tread on a Worm and it will turn.
