- The following are a few of the Proverbs that I heard in this district.
Taithnigheann Cearóg Ciarog eile
Is Mhait le dia congnamh
Is goire cabair de ní an doras.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
Two shorten the road
Better late than never
Self praise is no praise.
A stitch in time saves nine
Honesty is the best policy.
Two heads are better than one
The long road is the short one in the end.
All is well that ends wel
When it comes hard to the old hag she has to run
The longer you live the more you know
Unity is strength
The small thing is sweet
A stitch in time saves nine
One bird in your hand is better than two in the bush.
Better to go to bed superless than to rise in debt
The kind man has many friends. The hard harted man has no friends. The clock wont wait for anyone.
A drunken man is like an animal.
