I love cliches, can you guys think of any words of wisdom or cliches that contradict each other.
The two that comes to mind is
Many hands make light work, on the other hand, too many cooks spoil the stew.
The early bird gets the worm but on the other hand The second mouse gets the cheese
Thanks

Two heads are better than one. - If you want something done right, do it yourself
Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today. - Don't cross the bridge until you come to it

How's this - a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush - don't count your chickens before they've hatched.

How about "The early bird gets the worm, but good things come to those that wait."

Do unto others as you would have others do unto you - Nice guys finish last.
The squeaking wheel gets the grease - Silence is golden.
