HA! Dune Joke! Awesome! you just don't see enough of those...It's a saying that mending things when it only requires one stitch (the stitch in time, as in "in time to prevent disaster", not a stitch in time itself) saves nine stitches later when the little hole you could have fixed with one stitch has taken half your trousers away and now needs nine times the amount of work to fix.A sietch in time saves water.
If you havn't alraedy read it , check out national lampoon's "DOON".
The Bene Gesserit litany against fear becomes the litany against fun: I must not have fun. Fun is the time-killer.|

Two wrongs don't make it right, but three rights make a left.
I use a variation of that: "Two wrongs don't make a right, but two rights make a U-turn.", and my brother uses "Two wrongs don't make a right, 3 lefts do.".
edit: finally seeing "Two wrongs don't make a right, but two rights make a U-turn." in print makes me realize the second meaning there that if you screw up turn around and run away. wow...sound advice.
