Proverbial Antagonism
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
vs.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Don't cry over spilled milk
vs.
Sour grapes
Good things come to those who wait
vs.
The early bird gets the worm
Haste makes waste
vs.
He who hesitates is lost
Measure twice, cut once
vs.
Fortune favors the bold
Don't sweat the small stuff
vs.
A stitch in time saves nine
Don't count your chickens before they're hatched
vs.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise
vs.
Stop and smell the roses
Curiosity killed the cat
vs.
The truth will make you free
vs.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Don't cry over spilled milk
vs.
Sour grapes
Good things come to those who wait
vs.
The early bird gets the worm
Haste makes waste
vs.
He who hesitates is lost
Measure twice, cut once
vs.
Fortune favors the bold
Don't sweat the small stuff
vs.
A stitch in time saves nine
Don't count your chickens before they're hatched
vs.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise
vs.
Stop and smell the roses
Curiosity killed the cat
vs.
The truth will make you free
