    A Stitch In Time Saves Nine: There is no doubt that a stitch in time saves nine. It means that man must do something at the very early stage. This proverb in its literal sense applies to holes in our clothes which may be easily mended at first‚ but‚ if they are left unmanned‚ grow bigger and bigger‚ until they cannot be repaired without a great deal of sewing.
