If nothing is ventured, nothing is gained.

Let the world wagge, and take mine ease in myne Inne.

When the sun shineth, make hay.

All's well that ends well.

When all candles be out, all cats be grey.

While the grasse groweth the horse starveth.

There are none so blind as those who will not see. The most deluded people are those who choose to ignore what they already know.
