Newton's third law states: "every action has an equal and an opposite reaction".
so it would stand to reason that every proverb has an equal and opposite proverb.


All good things come to those who wait vs time and tide wait for none

The pen is mightier than the sword vs actions speak louder than words

Wise men think alike vs fools seldom differ

The best things in life are free vs there's no such thing as a free lunch

Slow and steady wins the race vs time waits for none

Look before you leap vs strike while the iron is hot

Do it well, or not at all vs half a loaf is better than none

Birds of a feather flock together vs opposites attract

Don't cross your bridges before you come to them vs forewarned is forearmed

Doubt is the beginning of wisdom vs faith will move mountains

Great starts make great finishes vs it isn't over till it's over

Practice makes perfect vs all work and no play makes jack a dull boy

Silence is golden vs the squeaky wheel gets the grease

You're never too old to learn vs you can't teach an old dog new tricks

What's good for the goose is good for the gander vs one man's meat is another man's poison

Absence makes the heart grow fonder vs out of sight, out of mind

Too many cooks spoil the broth vs many hands make light work

Hold fast to the words of your ancestors vs wise men make proverbs and fools repeat them
