The word that is heard perishes, but the letter that is written remains.
The wrath of brothers is fierce and devilish.
There are no greater promisers than those who have nothing to give.
There are only twenty-four hours in the day.
There is a time and place for everything.
There is honor among thieves.
There is more than one way to skin a cat.
There is no accounting for tastes.
There is no greater misfortune, than to not be able to endure misfortune.
There is not so much comfort in having children as there is sorrow in parting with them.
There is nothing certain, but the uncertain.
There will be sleeping enough in the grave.
There's a black sheep in every flock.
There's many a good tune played on an old fiddle.
There's many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip.
There's no fool like an old fool.
There's no smoke without fire.
There's nowt so queer as folk.
There's one law for the rich, and another for the poor.
There's only one pretty child in the world, and every mother has it.
They are fools whose sheep run away twice.
