- Nature breaks out through the eyes of a cat.
My own spirit and another mans horse.
A good run is better than a bad stand.
A cat likes fish but does not like to wet her feet.
Nature is stronger than education.
It is a long road that has no turn.
Far away cows wear long horns.
A bad workman blames his tools.
The best hurler is always on the fence.
Lie with the lamb and rise with the lark.
He that goes a borrowing goes a sorrowing.
Women's work is never done.
Have it yourself or go without.
A half loaf is better than no food.- Collector
