About a week ago I have started to compile 4-word proverbs structured ABAC like "Another day, another dollar."
So far - so good - now I have quite an impressive list of over 20 proverbs, idiomatic sayings, catch phrases etc.

Please contribute whatever fits my definition- The more - the merrier!

Any language welcome as long as it is a proverb, tongue twister, idiom etc. of exactly four words with the third word being the same as the first one.
Easy come - easy go" is ok, "Good accounts make good friends" or "As snug as a bug " - not accepted.

Within a week from the date of this post, I will provide both the original and the enlarged lists.

Come Seven, Come Eleven
