A stumble may prevent a fall
All good things come to those who wait
Everyone must row with the oars he has
Every path has its puddle

One of these days is none of these days
Revenge is a dish best served cold
Worry often gives a small thing a big shadow
Caught between a rock and a hard place
Caught between the devil and the deep blue sea

Beauty without grace is like a hook without bait.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire

Six of one, half a dozen of the other
(each choice is really the same thing)

Two sides of the same coin
(two aspects of a situation that are connected by necessity)

In for a penny, in for a pound
(if you're going to make a minor committment you might as well make the entire committment)

Don't count your chickens before they're hatched
(don't start making plans for something until it is a reality, rather than a pleasant speculation)

Don't cross your bridges before you get to them
All kinds at the site...
