When all candles be out, all cats be grey.

A hard beginning maketh a good ending.

Wedding is destiny, and hanging likewise.

Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

Would ye both eat your cake and have your cake?

Rome was not built in one day.

The loss of wealth is loss of dirt, as sages in all times assert; The happy man's without a shirt.

When all candles be out, all cats be grey.

If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.

Those who agree with us may not be right, but we admire their astuteness.

Many hands make light work.

Death makes equal the high and low.

Better to be happy than wise.

Ill weeds grow fast.

Its an ill wind that blows no good.

Look before you leap.

Out of the frying pan into the fire.

A rolling stone gathers no moss.

Its no use closing the barn door after the horse is gone.

The fat is in the fire.

Every man for himself.

Little pitchers have big ears.

Nothing is impossible to the willing heart.

Never look a gift horse in the mouth.

Cut your coat according to your cloth.

The more the merrier.

A short horse is soon curried.

One swallow never makes a summer.

Who waiteth for dead man's shoes will go long barefoot.

Don't put the cart before the horse.

Haste makes waste.

What you have, hold.

Half a loaf is better than none.

Know which side your bread is buttered on.

Beggars can't be choosers.

Every dog has its day.

The world's a theatre, the earth a stage, which God and nature do with actors fill.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

All's well that ends well.

Make hay while the sun shines.

Rome wasn't built in a day.

We have three cats. It's like having children, but there is no tuition involved.

I like cats. I used to have a lot of cats, but I don't anymore, now I just have a dog. It does take a certain temperament to have a cat, as they do have certain personalities.

We were brash young fellows'. I was always hanging with the older crowd anyway. The musicians were the Hip Cats, and I was hanging with them anyway. I Just started out real early.

I have studied many philosophers and many cats. The wisdom of cats is infinitely superior.

I've always been mad about cats.

We can certainly go further than cats, but why should it be that our brains are somehow so suited to the universe that our brains will be able to understand the deepest workings?

Perhaps it is because cats do not live by human patterns, do not fit themselves into prescribed behavior, that they are so united to creative people.

Even cats grow lonely and anxious.
