    A whistling girl and a crowing hen there is never luck in the house they are in.
    A stitch in time saves nine.
    Is fearr rith maith ná droch-sheasamh.
    Much wants more.

    You cannot hold water in a strainer.
    Half a loaf is better than no bread.
    He who laughs last, laughs best.
    Too far east is west.
    Dont ever put a job on the long finger.
