Were it not for hope the heart would break.
When the heart is full the tongue will speak
Learn young, learn fair; learn old, learn more
May God bless you to live as long as you want to; and want to as long as you live!
Money is flat and meant to be piled up.
Never marry for money. You'll borrow it cheaper.
Forsake not God till you find a better master.
If the doctor cures, the sun sees it; if he kills, the earth hides it.
What may be done at any time will be done at no time
Wink at small faults, for you have great ones yourself.
While a person gets they can never lose.
We'll never know the worth of water till the well go dry.
Twelve highlanders and a bagpipe make a rebellion.
Be slow in choosing a friend, but slower in changing him.
Don't marry for money; you can borrow it cheaper
A thread will tie an honest man better than a chain a rogue.
They talk of my drinking but never my thirst
Fools look to tomorrow; wise men use tonight
It's sin and not poverty that makes men miserable.
Be happy while you're living, for you're a long time dead.
The day has eyes, the night has ears
