- A Saturday flitten is a short sitting.
There many a slip between the cup and the lip
It's a bad wind that doesnt blow somebody good.
He that by the plough would thrive, he must either hold, lead, or drive.
The darkest hour is that before the dawn.
Never trust the heels of a horse.
You can't whistle and chew meal.
He that buys land will buy stones, he that will buy meat will buy bones.
A Saturday Moon comes 7 years to soon.
