A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

Business before pleasure.

Don't count your chickens before they're hatched.

Don't put the cart before the horse.

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Everybody's business is nobody's business.

Great minds think alike.

Haste makes waste.

He is the best general who makes the fewest mistakes.

He knows the cost of everything and the value of nothing.

He that cannot obey cannot command.

He who is master of himself will soon be master of others.

He who rides a tiger is afraid to dismount.

He whose face gives no light, shall never become a star.

Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

If you can't beat them, join them.

If you run after two hares, you'll catch neither.

It is best to be on the safe side.

More haste, less speed.

Too many cooks spoil the broth¹.

When in doubt, do nothing.
