You
can’t take feathers off a frog.
You’ll
sup sorrow with a long spoon.
A
nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse.
Good
goods come in small parcels.
Storms
bring all sorts of birds together.
He’s
better wearing out the boots than the blankets.
You
might as well be raving here as in bed.
A
closed mouth catches no flies.
Keep
up yer standin’, should ye never sell a ha’worth.
Have
it yourself, says the bird in the bush.
The
aisiest way ye get yer head outta the dog’s mouth, the better.
Lie
with dogs and you get fleas.
Faraway
fields are green.
As
ye rear the pup, ye have yer dog!
It’s
just a nine days’ wonder!
Ye
can’t whistle and chew meal.
Never
argue with a woman.
Eaten
bread’s soon forgotten.
We
must be saying something.
Give
him an inch an’ he’ll take a mile.
Miracles
will never cease.
There’s
one born every day!
The
world’s ill-divided!
