it is too late to shut the STABLE-door after the horse has bolted
a STITCH in time saves nine
the UNEXPECTED always happens
it is easy to be WISE after the eventforgetfulness
a BELLOWING COW soon forgets her calf
OUT of sight, out of mindforgiveness
CHARITY covers a multitude of sins
to ERR is human..
to KNOW all is to forgive all
OFFENDERS never pardon
never let the SUN go down on your angerfortune see good fortune; misfortune
free will and compulsion
he that COMPLIES against his will..
you can take a HORSE to the water..
one VOLUNTEER is worth two pressed menfriends see also associates
the BEST of friends must part
the COMPANY makes the feast
the ENEMY of my enemy is my friend
a FRIEND in need is a friend indeed
you should KNOW a man seven years before you stir his fire
LEND your money and lose your friend
SAVE us from our friends
TWO is company, but three is nonefutility see also possibility and impossibility
in vain the NET is spread in the sight of the bird
it is too late to shut the STABLE-door after
the horse has bolted
a STERN chase is a long chase
SUE a beggar and catch a louse
