- Manure heaps rising and Castles falling.
It is hard to break an old dog of his gait.
A cock crows loudest in his own yard.
There is a silver lining to every cloud.
An hour lost in the morning is looked for all the day.
The cock crows loudest in his own yard.
When the old cock crows the young cock learns.
Every crow thinks her own chick the blackest.
There is no fire without smoke.- Collector
