New churches and new taverns are seldom empty.
A bad penny always comes back.
Don't cry before you're hurt.
As the old birds sings, the young ones twitter.
Who throws a stone above him may have it fall on his own head.
Success has many fathers.
What is sport to the cat is death to the mouse.
Quick at meat, quick at work.
Many go out for wool, and come home shorn.
