Here's a baker's dozen of proverbs. Please give contradictory proverbs. There may well be more than one contradictory proverb. A point for each one!


Wow. I'm away for a few minutes, and miss all the fun! Here are my attempts, even though all the good ones are gone (and good luck, pdurrant, awarding the points for these conflicting and repeating answers ).

3. Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. - Patience is a virtue
4. It's better to be safe than sorry. - Faint heart never won fair maiden
5. Don't judge a book by its cover. - what you see is what you get
6. The squeaking wheel gets the grease. - an empty vessel make most noise
8. Actions speak louder than words. - the pen is mightier than the sword
