Inspired by Gilbert’s link, I decided to try asking my kindergartner to finish some proverbs. Though at times he seemed to just be attempting to rhyme, I think you will find deep wisdom here.

Better to be safe than… sorry

Strike while the… you are strong

It’s always darkest before… day

Never underestimate the power of… stress

You can lead a horse to water but… it will drink that water

Don’t bite the hand that… plays the band

No news is… perfect

A miss is as good as a… mister

You can’t teach an old dog new… tricks

If you lie down with dogs, you’ll… get peed on

Love all, trust… all

The pen is mightier than the… pin

An idle mind is… blank

Where there’s smoke there’s… a fire

A penny saved is… worth more

Two’s company, three’s… cheese

Don’t put off till tomorrow what… you need to do

Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and… die

None are so blind as… mice

Children should be seen and not… be mean to them

If at first you don’t succeed… keep moving forward

You get out of something what you… need

When the blind leadeth the blind… they get lost

Better late than… really late
