A watched pot never boils.-Anything that we wait for with eager attention seems to take a very long time.
As soon as man is born he begins to die.-The process of dying starts at birth. This saying reminds us of our own mortality, whatever our age.
Even the prayers of an ant reach to Heaven.-God hears all living beings.
A just war is better than an unjust peace.-Fighting between countries for a fair and good cause is better than no fighting in a situation that is unfair.
A stitch in time saves nine.-Repair something as soon as it is damaged. That’s a small repair job. If not, you will have a much bigger and more expensive repair job later.
