"give him enough rope and he'll hang himself"

suggesting that if you allow a guilty or foolish person enough freedom to act, they will eventually cause their own downfall. 

does anybody see this one playing out before their very own eyes?



another one is "time longer than rope"

Me thinks you have something to get off your chest…tell us

unfortunately it isn’t an exclusive proverb and some people expire before they do the necessary with that rope

we used to say time longer than TWINE

@birdseye

in more than a few places too

Careful with proverbs..
