- No fireside like your own
Your own story is everybodys story
A mans house is his cattle
If death was a thing that money would buy the rich would live and the poor would die.
There are more Paddy Lees than one
Pleople in glass houses should not throw stones
Dont tell youre mind to another till you look behind the fence
Better to go to bed supperless than rise in debt
Have it yourself or do without it
There is as good a fish in the sea as ever was caught
Better alone than in bad company
Let sleeping dogs rest
Dont swap horses untill you cross the stream(continues on next page)- Collector
