The mill cannot grind with the water that is past.

How gently glides the married life away, when she who rules still seems but to obey.

A good wife and health is a man's best wealth

Every path has its puddle.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

Cider on beer, never fear; beer upon cider, makes a bad rider.

You may poke a man's fire after you've known him for seven years.

Bread is the staff of life, but beer is life itself.

A ship and a woman are ever repairing.

The ship that will not obey the helm will have to obey the rocks.
