A fool and his money are quickly parted.
“
A watched pot never boils.

A word once let out of the cage cannot be whistled back again.
“
Always be prepared.
“
Be careful what you ask for; you may get it.
“
Be ever vigilant but never suspicious.
“
Because we focused on the snake, we missed the scorpion.

Better the devil you know than the one you don't
“
Better to be safe than sorry.

Beware a rickety wall, a savage dog and a quarrelsome person.

Beware the door with too many keys.
“
Beware the fury of a patient man.
“
Beware the Greeks bearing gifts.
“
Beware the person with nothing to lose.
“
Buyer beware.
“
Choose your neighbors before you buy your house.
“
Creditors have better memories than debtors.
“
Do not allow sins to get beyond creeping.
“
Don't be caught flat
“
Don't sail out farther than you can row back.
“
Easy does it.
“
Eggs have no business dancing with stones.
“
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.
“
Fear the Greeks bearing gifts.
“
Fine feathers don't make fine birds.
“
Fish don't get caught in deep water.
“
Forewarn'd, forearm'd.
“
Great good nature without prudence is a great misfortune.
“
He that scatters thorns, let him not go barefoot.
“
Hear reason or she will make you feel her.
“
If you are going a long way, go slowly.
“
If you buy what you don't need, you steal from yourself.
“
If you call one wolf, you invite the pack.
“
Ill weeds grow fast.
“
It's an ill wind that blows no good.
“
It's but little good you'll do a

Keep no more cats than will catch mice.
“
Look before you leap.
“
Measure a thousand times; cut once.
“
Mind your p's and q's.

Out of the frying pan, into the fire.

Pick your poison.
“
Sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite.
“
Sleeping people can't fall down.
“
Tap even a stone bridge before crossing it.

The crab that walks too far, falls into the pot.
“
The hardest person to awaken is the person already awake.
“
The honey is sweet but the bee has a sting.
“
The prudent embark when the sea is calm
“
The second word makes the quarrel.
“
Walls have ears.
