    Is furasta a dhul tar doras teac gan madadh.
    Is feárr annso é ná cá bhfuil sé
    Is feárr marchuigheacht ar gabhair ná coisidhe ar fheabhas
    Is feárr rith maith ná droch-sheasamh
    Is furasta fuinnt in aice na mine
    Ní hé lá na gaoithe lá na sgolb
    Is glas iad na cnuic acht ní féar iad
    Is feárr coigilt ar dtús ná ar deireadh
    Ná mol is ná cáin tú féin
    Nuair is mó do bhris teann do chrios
    Is minic a rug cú mall ar a chuid
    Is minic a bhris teanga duine a shrón
    Is minic a thug tuile fear buile le fánadh
    Ní fhágann minic onóir
    Is feárr suidhe geárr na seasamh fada.
    An té nach gcuirfidh ins an earach ní bhainfidh sé sa bfóghmhar
    Tiormhóchad sé an oiread lá is a d'fluichad sé dhá lá
    Ní théigheann teas tar fiucad
