    Xmas makes a fat graveyard. Spare the rod and spoil the child. Get another hill like Nephin. Never venture never win. No man is independent.

    Proverbs
    An empty sack wont stand. Never blacken todays joys with tomorrows burdens. All work and play makes Jack a dull boy. Earn gold and wear it. Send a goose to Dover and she will come a goose over. Its a dark cloud that has no silver lining. He that by the plough would thrive
