    (continued from previous page)
    Many in haste, repent at leasure.
    Take care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves.
    Cutting off his nose to spite his face
    Liars should have a good memory.
    Suspecion haunts, a guilty mind.
    The old dog for the road, but the pup for the booreen
    Every dog has his day.
