    Sayings.
    A person's eye is like a mirror.
    Health is better than wealth.
    Nature is stronger than training.
    A person often cuts a rod to beat himself.
    Rubbing grease to a fat pig's back.
    Deep waters run smooth.
    You will never miss the water till the well runs dry.
    Nellie Fitzgerald,
    Ballynacally,
    Ardagh,
    Co. Limerick.
