- Briseann an dúchas trí shúile an chait.
Is fearr féachaint romhat ná dhá féachaint id dhiaidh.
Éist le fuaim na h-abhann agus gheobhair breach.
Is maith scéalaí an aimsir.
Is maith an t-iománaí an té bíonn ar an gclaidhe.
Set a beggar on horseback he will ride to the devil.
Spare the rod and spoil the child.
Never shout till you're out of the wood.
You can bring the horse to water but you cannot make him drink it.
Out of evil comes good.
Every old shoe meets an old stocking.
Never count the chickens before they are hatched.
The old cock crows, the young cock learns.
Be afraid to do evil. learn to do good.- Collector
