Never put off 'til tomorrow what you can do today.
Don't cross the bridge till you come to it.

Hitch your wagon to a star.
Don't bite off more than you can chew.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease.
Silence is golden.

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.

Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
Nice guys finish last.

Many hands make light work.
Too many cooks spoil the broth.

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
Don't beat your head against a stone wall.

Look before you leap.
He who hesitates is lost.

Haste makes waste.
Time waits for no man.

It's better to be safe than sorry.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Two heads are better than one.
Paddle your own canoe.

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Out of sight, out of mind.

Don't judge a book by its cover.
Clothes make the man.
