Yorkshire born and Yorkshire bred, strong in the arm and weak in the head.
—English 19th
Willful waste makes woeful want.
Easy does it.
When the furze is in bloom, my love’s in tune.
Coming events cast their shadow before.
Shrouds have no pockets.
Lightning never strikes the same place twice.
It’s dogged as does it.
When the gorse is out of bloom, kissing’s out of fashion.
He that would go to sea for pleasure would go to hell for a pastime.
If you want to live and thrive, let the spider run alive.
Finders keepers, losers weepers.
Whatever man has done, man may do.
When the oak is before the ash, then you will only get a splash; when the ash is before the oak, then you may expect a soak.
Once a priest, always a priest.
The busiest men have the most leisure.
Blood will tell.
Fair play’s a jewel.
The best things come in small packages.
Councils of war never flight.
A stern chase is a long chase.
The man who is born in a stable is not a horse.
It takes three generations to make a gentleman.
A woman’s place is in the home.
He travels fastest who travels alone.
It is a poor heart the never rejoices.
If at first you don’t succeed, try ,try again.
When in doubt, do not.
The English are a nation of ship keepers.
One does not wash one’s dirty linen in public.
The difficult is done at once, the impossible takes a little longer.
Don’t change horses in mid stream.
First things first.
Blue are the hills that are far away.
A dog that will fetch a bone will carry a bone.
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.
The only good Indian is a dead Indian.
Jam tomorrow and jam yesterday, but never jam today.
The apple never falls far from the tree.
History repeats itself.
It is the pace that kills.
It is not spring until you can plant your foot upon twelve daisies.
Who says A must say B.
Where ignorance is bliss, Itis folly to be wise.
One white foot, buy him; two white feet, try him; three white feet, look well about him; four white feet, go without him.
Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.
East, west, home’s best.
From clogs to clogs is only three generations.
Dogs bark, but the caravan goes on.
Do not meet troubles half-way.
