    Lá o scoil lá o chéird, agus Domhnach o Aifreann trí nidhthe nách féidir leó casadh go brath

    Trí saghaiseann daoine bochta
    "Duine bocht le toil De, Duine bocht le na thoil féin. is duine bocht dá mba leis an saoghal go léir"

    Ceannuig deag-rud agus beidh agat saor rud
    Ceannuig droch-rud is ní bheidh agat aon rud

    Da mba leithe fear na sliabh
    Ní thagann ciall roimh aois

    Fásann níos mó i ngort ná mar a chuirtear ann

    Cé na bíónn aon chnámh sa teanghain is minic a brhis sé ceann duine

    Seachain an droch duine
    Is ní baoghal duit an duine macánta

    Is feárr bean ná spré
    Is olc an chearc ná scríobann dí féin
    Is annamh leis an gcat snathar a bheith air
    An rud is giorra do'n chroidhe
    Sé is giorra de'n bhéal

    Cuímhnig sar a labhrair
    Is feuch sar a léimir

    Is bínn béal ná tost
    Deinann ceann cíallmhar béal iarta
    Is ciúin iad na líne lána
    Is árd ghlór 's is beag sníomh é
    Focal mór is gníomh beag
