Pisreoga  [duchas:4345784]

You are welcome haws when all fruits fail

They say God never closed a gap that he did not open another.

It is a bad wind that does not favour somebody.

Keep the bone and the dog will follow you.

An inch is a great deal on a nose.

If you go to court leave your soul at home.
