IRISH PROVERBS: Human Nature

You never miss the water till the well runs dry.


Everyone feels his own wound first.


The pig in the sty doesn't know the pig going along the road.


Pity him who makes an opinion a certainty.


No two people ever lit a fire without disagreeing.


Seeing is believing, but feeling is the God's own truth.


It is the quiet pig that eats the meal.


A glowing griosach (ember) is easily rekindled.


The person bringing good news knocks boldly on the door.
