Hint
Answer
Troth as stronger then diction
Truth is stranger than fiction
Walk in cheat
Talk is cheap
Bake say white she bun shires
Make hay while the sun shines
Top zany books spool thy froth
Too many cooks spoil the broth
In thy can sits, tear in
If the cap fits, wear it
But if she crying pin, onto toe wire
Out of the frying pan, into the fire
Skill haters gun deer
Still waters run deep
Flood it thinker then hater
Blood is thicker than water
Baste hot, went nut
Waste not, want not
Where's to much think is I tree bunch
There's no such thing as a free lunch
Dive any yearn
Live and learn
Rome it there she hears it
Home is where the heart is
I wool any has honey ire moon parsed
A fool and his money are soon parted
Tie west thongs on wife ere fret
The best things in life are free
Ban toes nor give my break along
Man does not live by bread alone

I only know it as "If the shoe fits, wear it." Never heard of cap.

Great quiz.

Agreed with PSN. Never heard of “cap,” only “shoe.” Figured it out, at least.
