- A new broom sweeps clean, but the old one knows the corners the best.
A stitch in time saves nine.
Big cow, big fodder, give the bull a battle
Honesty is the best policy
Time will tell the tale
It is often a man's mouth broke his nose
Time is a good storyteller
It is not small and pretty nor big and ugly
An empty sack won't stand
When the wine is in the sense is out.
A good beginning is half the work
What he won't hear wont do him any harm.
Death will come, sooner or latter.
Four things an Irishman cant trust - a cow's horn, a horse's hoof, a dog's snarl and a Englishman's laugh
Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy wealthy and wise
It is like a halfpenny worth of tobacco in a sack
Mind your own business and you will have enough to do- Collector
