   Here are some of the proverbs used in this district. Never judge the book by the cover. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Don't count your chickens before they're hatched. The hens trot to Scotland. A burrowed horse has hard hoofs. Time is a good story-teller. Work is better than talk. Your pocket is your friend. Fine feathers make fine birds. Don't be hard and don't be soft. Lie with the lamb and rise with the bird. A new brush sweeps clean. An empty sack doesn't stand. Too many cooks spoil the broth. Time and the tide wait for none. It's a long road that has no turning. It is often a person's mouth broke his nose. Hunger is good sauce. A blind man is a bad judge of colours. No news is better than bad news.
