- (continued from previous page)Is binn béal in - a thostIs geal leis an bhfiach dubh a geárrcach fein.Ciall an t-ualach is fearr dár iomchuir - aon duine riamh.Is fearr teach beag agus teann-lón na teac mór ar bhreagán bídh.Nior chaill fear ar croí-mhóir riamh é.Ní i ndeire na seachtaine ná i ndeire na bliana a dhiolann Dia a luchtsaothair ach i ndeire a saoil.Is fearr fochal sa chúirt ná púnt sa sparán.Bíonn blas milis ar praiseach na comharsan
Smooth water runs deepNever put off till to-morrow what you can do to day.Experience is best schoolmaster.The longest road has an end and the straightest road has a turn.A rich hawthorn, a braw winter.
A little pot is soon hot.
Better alone than in bad company
A little fire is quickly trodden out.
A good book is the best of friends.(continues on next page)- Collector
