    (continued from previous page)
    A good character is better than a good fortune.
    Rain before seven fair by eleven.
    Your son is your son till he gets a wife but your daughter is your daughter all the days of her life.
    Think twice before you leap once.
    Never give away all your good advice - keep a little for yourself.
    A swarm of bees in June is worth a silver spoon.
    It was not on one foot that Patrick came to Ireland.
    A rolling stone gathers no moss.
    If, is a small word but it means a lot.
    You shouldn't count your chickens before they are hatched.
    Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise.
