Between two stools one falls to the ground.

Jam tomorrow and jam yesterday, but never jam today.

Possession is nine points of the law.

Barking dogs seldom bite.

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.

A person is known by the company they keep.

A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

You can't have your cake and eat it too.

The best things in life are free.

Never look a gift horse in the mouth.

Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die.

Tomorrow never comes.

Little strokes fell great oaks.

Talk of the Devil, and he is bound to appear.

Life is just a bowl of cherries.

Big fish eat little fish.

Don't bite off more than you can chew.

Money makes the world go round.

Ashes to ashes; dust to dust.

All good things come to those that wait.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Only the good die young.

A prophet is not recognized in his own land.

You can't take it with you.

Don't throw good money after bad.

The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Look before you leap.

It's better to wear out, than to rust.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
