Shoe Proverbs

My dad came up with the idea of shoe proverbs when he was in high school, and told me about them while we were in the car one day.

What you do is take a well known saying, like a proverb, and replace one of the key words with "shoe."

For example:

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush becomes---- A bird in the hand is worth two shoes.

Grab the bull by the horns = Grab the bull by the shoes

The pot calling the kettle black-----> The pot calling the kettle a shoe

And last for today: The pen is mightier than the sword becomes The shoe is mightier than the sword.
