I always heard ... if it had been a SNAKE it would have bit you ...
I heard a lot of the others listed ... plus
"Close the door you weren't raised in a barn"
"Believe half of what you see and nothing that you hear" (what you hear isn't always told to you the right way or is necessarily the truth ... as in you can't believe gossip)
"Birds of a feather flock together" (you're judged by the company you keep)
"Don't put all your eggs in one basket"
"Anything worth doing is worth doing right the first time"
