You've probably seen similar puzzles before, but each of the follow represents a well known phrase:

1.   head
   the rest

2.    m
    g   e
    n   s
     i s

3.  bridge
     a e
    w t r

4.  bitten
     shy
     shy

5.  Site  Love
    Site
    Site

6.  yourbestit'sinterest

7.  smoke fire        smoke fire
             smoke fire  
    smoke fire        smoke fire

Do you know of others?

(In reply to 5 out of 7 by Hugo)

Usually, for number 7, I've heard "where there's smoke there's fire."

Number 1 is apparently "head above the rest", though I've usually heard that in the form

head  shoulders
the rest

("head and shoulders above the rest")

Six would be "It's in your best interest."
