A bad penny always turns up
A barking dog never bites
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
A cat may look at a king
A chain is only as strong as its weakest link
A change is as good as a rest
A dog is a man’s best friend
A drowning man will clutch at a straw
A fish always rots from the head down
A fool and his money are soon parted
A friend in need is a friend indeed
A golden key can open any door
A good beginning makes a good ending
A good man is hard to find
A house divided against itself cannot stand
A house is not a home
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step
A leopard cannot change its spots
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing
A little of what you fancy does you good
A man is known by the company he keeps
A man who is his own lawyer has a fool for his client
A miss is as good as a mile
A new broom sweeps clean
A nod’s as good as a wink to a blind horse
A penny saved is a penny earned
A picture paints a thousand words
A place for everything and everything in its place
A poor workman always blames his tools
A problem shared is a problem halved
A prophet is not recognized in his own land
A rising tide lifts all boats
A rolling stone gathers no moss
A soft answer turneth away wrath
A stitch in time saves nine
A thing of beauty is a joy forever
A volunteer is worth twenty pressed men
A watched pot never boils
A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke
A woman’s place is in the home
A woman’s work is never done
A word to the wise is enough
Absence makes the heart grow fonder
Absolute power corrupts absolutely
Accidents will happen (in the best-regulated families)
Actions speak louder than words
Adversity makes strange bedfellows
After a storm comes a calm
All good things come to he who waits
All good things must come to an end
All is grist that comes to the mill
All publicity is good publicity
All roads lead to Rome
All that glitters is not gold
All the world loves a lover
All things come to those that wait
All things must pass
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
All’s fair in love and war
All iss for the best in the best of all possible worlds
All's well that ends well
A miss is as good as a mile
An apple a day keeps the doctor away
An army marches on its stomach
An Englishman’s home is his castle
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
Another day, another dollar
Any port in a storm
April showers bring forth May flowers
As thick as thieves
As you make your bed, so you must lie upon it
As you sow so shall you reap
Ashes to ashes dust to dust
Ask a silly question and you’ll get a silly answer
Ask no questions and hear no lies
Attack is the best form of defence
