A Single Sparrow in the Hand is much better than a Thousand Sparrows Flying

This idiom is much older than the "Bird in the hand" cultural idiom in modern day terms. Back in the 6th century (BCE), according to the Proverbs of Ahiquar, this phrase means that it's better to have an small certain advantage rather than an MERE POTENTIAL of many uncertain advantages.
