Going the whole nine yards. Don't trudge mud into the house of love. All that glistens is not gold. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. The early bird gets the worm.
Followup: And we all know what May flowers bring...Pilgrims. Alternate: If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried. If wishes were horses Migs would fly.
A miss by an inch is a miss by a mile. Meaning: It's up to you to decide. Never do today what you can put off till (until) tomorrow . Worrying is like sitting in a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but it doesn't get you anywhere
Talk the hind legs off a donkey. Rome wasn't built in a day. It's often a person's mouth broke their nose. Good men are scarce. Time is money. The opposite form also exists, Clothes don't make the man.
Nice guys finish last. All's fair in love and war. Our greatest glory is not in never falling but in rising everytime we fall. --Confucius No news is good news.
Meaner than a junk-yard dog. A rolling stone gathers no moss. No news is good news. Rome wasn't built in a day. Time flies when you're having fun.
