A barking dog

never bites

A bird om the hand is

worth two in the bush

A chain is only as strong as

its weakest link

A dog is a man's best friend

A drowning man will

clutch at a straw

A fish always rots

from the head down

A friend in need is a friend indeed

A golden key can open any door

A good beginning

makes a good ending

A good man is hard to find

A person is known by

the company he keeps

A house is

not a home

A journey of a thousand miles

begins with a single step

A leopard cannot change its spots

A man is known

by his friends

A picture paints a thousand words

A place for everything and

everything in its place

Actions speak

louder than words

All good things come

to he who waits
All that glitters is not gold

An apple a day

keeps the doctor away

As you make your bed,

so you must lie upon it

Bad news

travels fast

Don't bite the hand

that feeds you

Good fences make

 good neighbours

Home is where the heart is

If God had meant us to fly

he'd have given us wings

It's no use locking the stable door

after the horse has bolted

Jack of all trades, master of none

Money doesn't grow

on trees

Never judge a book

 by its cover

Oil and water

don't mix

Old soldiers never die,

they just fade away

Once a thief,

always a thief

Success has many fathers,

while failure is an orphan
