Proverbs
A man chases a woman until she catches him.
A stitch in time saves nine.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
A wise man admits his ignorance; an ignorant man admits he's wise.
A watched pot never boils.
A bad guy is another man's good guy.
As the twig is bent, so inclines the tree.
A broken clock's right twice a day.
As the crow flies.
As California goes, so goes the nation.
A penny saved is a penny earned.
An ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure.
An idle mind is the devil's workshop.
A man who acts as his own attorney has a fool for a client.
Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
All's fair in love and war.
All hat, no cattle.
A horse with two heads wins no races.
A friend in need, is a friend indeed!
A fool and his money are soon parted.
