Conflicting Proverbs

1. Actions speak louder than words-The pen is mightier than the sword.

2. Look before you leap-He who hesitates is lost.

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

4. A silent man is a wise one-A man without words is a man without thoughts.

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

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

7. Nothing ventured, nothing gained-Better safe than sorry.

8. The bigger, the better-The best things come in small packages.

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

10. What will be, will be-Life is what you make it.

11. Cross your bridges when you come to them-Forewarned is forearmed.

12. What's good for the goose is good for the gander-One man's meat is another man's poison.

13. With age comes wisdom-Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings come all wise sayings.

14. The more, the merrier-Two's company; three's a crowd.
