- (continued from previous page)The time will come when no man can work.
It is a long road that has no end.
A closed mouth catches no flies.
A rolling stone gathers no moss and a roving man gathers no brass.
Don't sell your hens on a wet day.
A rainbow in the morning is the shepherd's warning and a rainbow in the evening makes the shepherd satisfied.
If the cap don't suit you don't wear it.
Is fearr sioch na baisteach.
One penny gets another.
Fine feathers make fine birds.
Birds of one feather flock together.
Make hay while the sun shines.
An ill wind blows nobody good.
Better late than never.
