    Breaking a mirror leads to seven years bad luck (harsh or what!)

    good or bad bad luck happens in threes.

    Time flies like an arrow ( but fruit flies like a banana - Groucho Marx)

    theres no time like the present

    a stitch in time saves nine

    Truth will out

    oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practise to deceive.
