“Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.”

First to the mill will first grind.

He who enters the game must endure it.

What you do not know does not hurt you.

The day we fear hastens toward us, the day we long for creeps.

Forbidden fruit always tastes the best.

All aren’t gold that glimmers.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

What breaks in a moment may take years to mend.

All good things are three.
