| Look before you leap. | He who hesitates is lost. |
| If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. | Don't beat your head against a stone wall. |
| Absence makes the heart grow fonder. | Out of sight, out of mind. |
| Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. | Don't cross the bridge until you come to it. |
| Two heads are better than one. | Paddle your own canoe. |
| Haste makes waste. | Time waits for no man. |
| You're never too old to learn. | You can't teach an old dog new tricks. |
| A word to the wise is sufficient. | Talk is cheap. |
| It's better to be safe than sorry. | Nothing ventured, nothing gained. |
| Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. | Beware of Greeks bearing gifts. |
| Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. | Nice guys finish last. |
| Hitch your wagon to a star. | Don't bite off more that you can chew. |
| Many hands make light work. | Too many cooks spoil the broth. |
| Don't judge a book by its cover. | Clothes make the man. |
| The squeaking wheel gets the grease. | Silence is golden. |
