 Mr. Hossam Abdalla
As you sow , you will rap
Demands cut diamonds
In the long run
When the cat is a way the mice play
Walls have ears
There is no rose without a thorn
The way to the man's heart is through
his stomach
The spirit is willing but the flesh is
weak
The darkest hour is that before the
dawn
Talk of the devil, and he is sure to
appear
Speech silver but silence is gold
Silence gives consent
Poverty is no sin
Spare the rod and spoil the Child
Out of sight out of mind
One man's meat is another man's
poison
No one is perfect
Never too old to learn
Never put off till tomorrow what can be
done today
Necessity is the mother of invention
More haste less speed
Money begets money
Many hands make light work
Man proposes and god disposes
Make hay while the sun shines
Like father like son
Knowledge is power
It is no use crying over the spilt milk
If you sing before breakfast you will
cry before dinner
