- It is a long lane that has no turning.You cannot whistle and chew meal.Apples will grow again.Long churning makes bad butter.You put the porridge through the butter (when a bad mistake is made)Live horse and you will get grass.God never closes one door but He opens another.Lend your horse to a beggar and he will ride to the devil.A fool and his money is easy parted.What's in a man sober comes out when he's drunk.When you have your hand in the dog's mouth get it out as easy as you can.Throw a bone to a cross dog.Don't drown the Miller.
