| IRISH PROVERBS If you do not sow in the spring you will not reap in the autumn. If you want to be criticized, marry. Instinct is stronger than upbringing. It is a long road that has no turning. It is not a secret if it is known by three people. It is sweet to drink but bitter to pay for. It is the good horse that draws its own cart. It is the quiet pigs that eat the meal. It's not a matter of upper and lower class but of being up a while and down a while. Lack of resource has hanged many a person. Listen to the sound of the river and you will get a trout. Mere words do not feed the friars. Necessity is the mother of invention. Need teaches a plan. Patience is poultice for all wounds. Youth does not mind where it sets its foot. You've got to do your own growing, no matter how tall your grandfather was. People live in each other's shelter. The hole is more honorable than the patch. The light heart lives long. The mills of God grind slowly but they grind finely. The raggy colt often made a powerful horse. The wearer best knows where the shoe pinches. The well fed does not understand the lean. The work praises the man. |
