The Irish have a way with words: Irish Proverbs & Saying

The Irish have a way with words as we all know. The following is a sample of sayings and proverbs that have lasted for generations. They are taken from a book called Timeless Wisdom available at www.ucdpress.ie

 

Love

If you love her in rags your love will last

A silent mouth is the sweetest sound
Empty and cold is a house without a woman

 

Wisdom

There is hope from the sea but none from the graveyard

A poor man's tale is rarely heard

Better to go to bed supperless than to rise in debt
