- The old dog for the road and the pup for "boreen" (bóirairín).
The world would not make a race horse out of a donkey.
An empty purse makes most noise.
You cannot make a silk purse out of a barrow pig's ear.
What is not sown in Spring is not reaped in Autumn.
If a cuckoo signs, sings on a tree without leaves sell your cow and buy corn.
There is no fireside like your own.
Rome was not built in a day.
Bit by bit the castle was built.
One bird in your hand is worth two in the bush.- Collector
