“Delays can be dangerous.”

The opera isn’t over till the fat lady sings.

An empty sack won’t stand alone.

If you would enjoy the fruit, pluck not the flower.

Darkness is the owl’s desire.

A dog returns to where he has been fed.

The only thing a heated argument ever produced is coolness.

Dare to be true; nothing can need a lie.

An egg today is worth a hen tomorrow.

The only difference between stumbling blocks and stepping stones is the way you use them.

A house without books is like a room without windows.

If your time ain’t come not even a doctor can kill you.

Danger begets caution.

Ignorance is bliss.

A woman can’t drive her husband, but she can lead him.

Even a dog knows the difference between being stumbled over and being kicked.

Custom surpasses nature.
