    Ar maith a leis féin a dheineann an cat crónán.
    Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin.
    Toach maith leath na h-oibre.
    Is deachair ceann críonna a chur ar ghuailibh óga.
    Marbh an té agus marbh gan é.
    Dá fhaid é an lá tagann an oíche.
    I ndididh a chéile déantar na caisleáin.
    Ná déan nós agus ná bris nós.
    Cuir snaidhm nó caillfidh tú dhá greim.
    Ní creidtear an fhírinne ón duine bhréagach.
    Bailíonn brobh beart agus déanann beart staca.
    Is minic do chuir luaithe fear na cruaice amach.
    Bíonn dhá innsint ar scéal.
    Is olc an gaoth ná séideann do duine éigin.
    Is treise spuir na bacaighe.
    Briseann an dúchas trí shúile an cait.
    Ní dhéanfadh an saol capall ráis
